Shout-out to Laila Carter and Paislie Reid who recently showed their livestock in the Mississippi State Fair. Laila is pictured with Stella, a commercial meat goat. They brought home a 2nd place ribbon in showmanship from the eight-year olds' class, and they won a 5th place ribbon in another class! Laila's Mimi and FMSD School Board member Chantelle Herchenhahn posed for a picture with the duo. Laila and her bovine, June Carter, walked away with a 4th place ribbon in the European heifers' class. Bearcat Paislie Reid showed her Brahman heifer, Penny. They won in their division, made it into the Grand Championship, and they won 4th place at the fair. In the future, Laila wants to be a nurse or a teacher, and Paislie wants to be a STEM teacher.
Bearcats showed up Friday dressed as senior citizens!
Parents, note the dress-up days for Red Ribbon week!
On Tuesday, the Bearcat family enjoyed a visit from Coach Calhoun! He brought excitement and energy to the FES campus with the Move to Learn program! He emphasized the importance of movement and laughter on children's developing brains. Superintendent Dr. Melanie Nelson, Assistant Superintendent Dr. Marcus Holbert, Nutrition Director Tonya Davis, and the FMSD School Board President Mr. Charles Longmire all stopped by FES to join in on the fun! Keep moving, Bearcats!
These Superheroes keep the FES campus clean and shiny day in and day out!

FHS students Maleihya and Ta'nia were on campus this morning collecting Homecoming t-shirt order forms and money. Parents, you may contact your child's teacher for a t-shirt order form. T-shirts are $15 each (X-large sizes have an additional charge). The deadline to order a shirt will be this Friday, August 23, 2024.
First-grade Bearcats created promise bracelets in Mrs. Spangler's classroom to remind everyone of the classroom promises. The blue bead is a reminder to make smart choices, and the red bead means to listen to others. The green bead signifies using kind words. The yellow bead is a reminder to take turns, and the white bead means to respect others. Looks like it will be a great year in first grade!
It's only the second week of school, and these two Bearcats received "Caught Being Good" awards from their teachers. Hassan is pictured with his 3rd-grade teacher, Lee Ware!
Great job, Hassan and Daleyza!
