Fox Mill Focus

May 6th, 2022

 

Dear Fox Mill Family,

 

Happy Friday,

 

As we wrap up teacher appreciation week, we would like to send a big “Thank You” to our wonderful community and PTA for their generosity for teacher appreciation week.  A special note of appreciation goes out to Jessica Kennedy and her Teacher Appreciation team: Rachel Murphy, Leila Kizer, Russ Douglass, and Emily Chappell for spearheading the efforts. 

 

Our Kindergarten Round Up went very well last Friday. Although our Round Up session was completed, we are still registering students for the new school year.  Please visit our home page to complete an intake form:

Basketball Game vs SVES, May 6

Bring your whole family to the premier event of the school year, on May 6th, @ South Lakes high school! Come cheer on our teachers and 6th graders as they take on Sunrise Valley Elementary school! Be sure to bring your Fox Mill pride…and your appetites! Students in grades K-3 are invited to come welcome the athletes in the high-five tunnel, and there will be plenty of food for sale (pre-orders preferred, as there will be a limited supply of extras onsite) and a FMES sponsored bake sale! We can’t wait to see you there!  Lucia's subs, Domino's Pizza, and Chick-fil-A sandwiches are among the items available for pre-order on Pay4SchoolStuff.
