Firefly Families,
This was an amazing week for our students but our teachers and staff as well! We appreciate you honoring our incredible educators and staff who light up our students' lives every day!
We want to extend our heartfelt thank you to all of our families for your overwhelming support and for spoiling us during this special week! Your kind gestures, thoughtful notes and tokens of appreciation have truly touched our hearts and reminded us of the wonderful community we have at Alyssa Ferguson.
Our teachers and staff pour their hearts and souls into nurturing and educating our Fireflies and your recognition means the world to them. We are beyond blessed to have such amazing families partnering with us on our mission to ignite minds, inspire hearts and empower our students to become courageous world changers!
A huge shout out to our PTO, our appreciation committee and LaToya Jones for making Candy Land come to life for our staff!
Thank you all once again for your unwavering support! Together, we celebrate the dedication, passion and commitment of our outstanding teachers and staff!
We honor and celebrate all the amazing Firefly mothers who light up our lives with love! May we also remember those mothers who are no long with us, and hold their memory close in our heart! Wishing everyone a day filled with cherished memories and the warmth of love, past and present!
Filled with Firefly Pride,
Carla

Summer Meals
This summer, the Fort Bend ISD Child Nutrition Department will connect children 18 and younger and enrolled students with disabilities up to 21 years old with healthy, no cost summer meals. For the children who rely on school meals during the academic year, these meals offer a source of good nutrition when school is out for the long summer vacation. The district will announce summer meals dates, locations, and times mid-May.
