  • Halloween at FLMS:  It was great to see the kids happy and having fun while learning and still “doing school”- thank you for helping us make sure that costumes were school appropriate.  There were some great “characters” floating through these halls today!  Our students are amazing, and sometimes we forget that they are still kids, and love to have fun on days like this.  Today, we balanced fun with learning, and our students were respectful and responsible. 

  • Day of the Dead Dance- This annual dance is brought to us by the Spanish team, and we have almost 200 students attending.  This cultural celebration funds a Flamenco Presentation in the spring for students, and we super appreciate the work that the Spanish team has done to set this up for our students.  Gracias!

  • Shrek the Musical - Auditions will be held on November 12th. Here is all of the information!

  • FLBC Basketball Program Offerings!  See the FLYER for more information!

  • Our Campus Programs Department is offering a Basic Babysitting Class in November. Here is the link for more information.

  • National Scholastic Art and Writing Awards- If your child loves to draw, paint, sculpt, or write in a variety of genres, please have them chat with their ELA or Art Teachers to submit their work to Scholastics!  I hear we have some submissions ALREADY!

  • Grade Release Dates- Term 1: Grades Close for Term 1 on November 1st!  Report Cards Quarter 1 grades should be posted and visible in Aspen on 11/8.


Message from the Guidance Department:

WHO WOULD LIKE TO PIN A FEATHER ON THE TURKEY?  We are reaching out to our FLMS community to help us create and provide Thanksgiving Baskets for families who could use a little support during the Thanksgiving holiday.  Turkeys, juice, rolls and butter have already been generously donated so we need your help for the fixings.  If you would like to donate an item (list of items), please have your student stop by the guidance department to pick a feather from the list and pin it on our handsome turkey, I will confirm your donations via email.  Students and staff can drop off their donations in the appropriate box located in the library.  Donations are due no later than Wednesday, November 20th.  Pies can be dropped off on Monday, November 25th.  If you are interested in receiving a Thanksgiving basket or have any questions, please reach out to Melissa Navega at mnavega@freelake.org.  We are truly grateful to our amazing staff and community for all of your contributions!
