From Mrs. McKnight
Our 3rd-5th grade students have been working hard on their IAR assessments. Next week we will continue testing on Tuesday - Thursday. All Ferson students have been so respectful during testing by transitioning in the hallway so quietly. Great job to all of our Ferson students!
The eclipse is Monday. You may have received information from your child's teacher in regards to viewing. Originally we thought we would be indoors for recess all day, however classes will have outdoor recess prior to 12:30 as this will be before the eclipse begins. It is supposed to be a beautiful day outside and we haven't had too many of those recently. We will be sure to be safe and there is a link below for your information.
Have a great weekend,
Kristy McKnight
Officer Kramer & Charlie
The Thursday before Spring Break, Ferson students were greeted by a very special visitor. St. Charles Police Officer Kramer brought service dog, Charlie, to Ferson to welcome students to school. Thank you to PTO for setting up this fun spirit morning!

Talent Show Registration
We are so excited for this year's Ferson Creek Talent Show on Wednesday, May 8th! Please see this form for details regarding the event and to register to participate. The registration form only needs to be completed once per group/act. Each parent doesn't need to complete the form. The Talent Show includes auditions, a dress rehearsal and the final performance. Looking forward to an amazing show!
Beginning Orchestra
On Wednesday, April 24th, the 3rd Grade Beginning Orchestra students will perform for the 2nd graders & remaining 3rd graders. This is a great way for our students to get introduced to orchestra as they make plans for next year. Afterwards, Orchestra students will line up and let others try-out their instruments.
St Charles North Summer Camp Brochure
The 2024 St. Charles North Summer Camp Brochure is linked below. This is also posted on their athletic website (https://schools.snap.app/scn). Registration will go live on Friday, March 15.
Outside Drinks
Starting Monday, April 1st, no outside drinks (Starbucks, Dunkin', etc.) will be allowed for students at school. Students will be directed to finish beverages that are not water before entering the building.
Additionally, students should not need any beverages in the classroom aside from water. Prime and Gatorade can be saved for lunches, not the classroom. Please make sure your child has a water bottle with them at school.
Thank you for your cooperation!
