From FCUSD 168: We are watching the weather this afternoon as we get close to dismissal time. We will dismiss at our regular times, but may hold our school buses for a few minutes depending on the timing of the storm system that is supposed so come through within the next 30 to 40 minutes. Our schools remain some of the strongest and safest facilities in the community and we continue to work to keep our students safe.

FIS has celebrated Autism Acceptance month all month long! This initiative was spearheaded by a group of our fantastic special education teachers and it has brought such a unifying light into the building over the recent weeks! We hope that you follow our students' lead and choose to not only accept, but celebrate, all kinds of minds! 🧩💙
