Chat and Connect

Join us October 27

Are you looking for an opportunity to stimulate your intellect?
Are you missing cultural events?

Please join FCS for the kickoff of the first in a new virtual event series called "Chat and Connect,” where parents have a chance to converse and engage with each other.

Head of School Angela Garcia will lead a conversation with FCS parent and CIA officer turned author Tom King. In addition to being a novelist, Tom is a celebrated comic book writer and he will be supporting the comic writers and artists for The FoCuS newspaper this year. He and Angela will discuss being courageous risk-takers in our own lives, and instilling that courage in our children as part of our mission at FCS.

When: Tuesday, October 27 from 6:30 - 8:00 PM
Where: Online via Google Meet
