Roger's Fundraiser: The fourth Tuesday of every month is a Fernan fundraiser (Post Falls-Sherman is being remodeled)! We can earn 20% of receipt sales. Vouchers are being sent home this week.
Halloween costumes are welcome for Trunk-or-Treat, but costumes need to stay at home on Halloween. Thank you for your cooperation.
Please check our lost and found! We have lots of children's belongings. It helps to label your child's items.
Join us for the PTA Sponsored Trunk or Treat this Saturday!
New character traits: service and compassion!
We are wrapping up the two character traits for September and October, Initiative and Grit. For the months of November and December, our character traits will be Service and Compassion! I will be discussing these traits in their classrooms. Service is: the action of helping or doing work for someone. Compassion is: the feeling that arises when you see another's difficulty and feel motivated to help with that difficulty or concern. Please discuss these traits with your children when you have the chance.
We hope you have a great holiday season. Please feel free to contact me here at Fernan STEM Academy if I can assist you in supporting your child's education.
Sincerely,
Eric Kendra
