Why are bees important? If you don't know, ask a first grader! We have been learning all about the importance of bees and pollination. We pretended to be bees while having a pollination party. Alexis from the Fillmore County Extension office brought the honey extractor and demonstrated how the honey is extracted from the frames. She gave us a taste of raw honey - some students said yummy and some students said yucky!

Dear Community Members & Parents, Your input is important to us as we embark on the vital task of planning for the future of Fillmore Central Public School's facilities. As part of our ongoing facility master planning process, we're reaching out to gather feedback on potential solutions to address our current and future needs. We've already held two community meetings, during which we presented the findings of a comprehensive Facility Audit and Educational Alignment Study. These studies have identified critical needs within our school facilities and proposed potential solutions to meet those needs effectively. Your perspective is crucial in shaping the decisions that will impact our school community for years to come. Whether you're a parent, a resident, or simply invested in the success of our schools, we invite you to share your thoughts and ideas by completing our brief survey. Your participation will help ensure that the Fillmore Central School Board considers a diverse range of perspectives as we move forward with our facility planning efforts. Together, we can create a learning environment that meets the needs of our students, staff, and community. Please take a few moments to complete the survey and make your voice heard. Your feedback is important to us. The survey will remain open until April 24th.

This morning, the retired educators had their last get-together of the school year at the high school. While they were there, they got a special treat—listening to the choir practice for the District Music Contest next week! These coffee meetups happen four times a year, giving retired educators a chance to catch up and see what's new in the district. If you're interested in joining next year, just reach out to Kenna Marchand at kenna.marchand@fillmorecentral.org. It's a great way to stay connected and share memories with fellow retired educators!

The FC National Honor Society and Student Council is planning a community service give back day for the afternoon of Friday, April 19th.
