Updates and Happenings

• The first day of school is this Monday, August 30! Parents, when you drop off your student(s) each day, you will need to show proof of completion of the Frontline health screening to your child’s teacher. This can be done quickly from the app on your phone. Please have the completion screen ready when you approach drop off each day to ensure a prompt exchange.

We so enjoyed seeing students and parents back in the building today for our open house. Keep FCS and our staff in your prayers as we bring all of our students back in the building for in-person learning beginning Monday!

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. ~Philippians 4:4-8
