Message From Principal Kinney
Good Afternoon,
We had another great week here at Fowler. Our "Rock the Ages" cast has continued to rehearse as they prepare for their big performance debut next Friday and Saturday. The set is looking fantastic. Every so often I swing into a rehearsal for a few seconds and I am always impressed by how well such a large group of mixed ages works together. I can't wait to see the show. Please see the flyer below for more details.
Also, this weekend is the debut of Annie at Maynard High School. If you have a free night and want a great show, please check it out. There is also a flyer below for this performance with information on how to get tickets!
MCAS:
As we get closer I want to reach out with some expectations for our students.
1. Hard candy will be allowed, but at a very limited level. Students can bring a small handful of things like Jolly Ranchers and/or mints. They can only bring in their own and they will not be allowed to share. Giant Costco-sized bags are not allowed and they will be required to be stored in the office. Students will be able to retrieve them at the end of the day.
2. Electronic devices are not allowed (EVER) to be used during MCAS. Any student who has a phone out will have it removed and stored in the office and their test will be voided. Smart watches will also be required to be stored on the teacher's desk while students are testing.
3. We hope all students get a good night's rest before their exam. And when possible a sustainable breakfast. We will also be serving breakfast as always.
Please check out all the flyers below with many awesome things happening around town in the next few weeks. Have a great weekend!
