Every year at this time, we’re reminded that Thanksgiving is an opportunity to count our blessings. With each year, I have become more grateful for the life I have been given. As the Head of School at FCS, there is so much for me to give thanks for this year:
The FCS community welcoming and embracing me. 
Being in a space where that of God is seen by and seen in everyone.
Joyful and playful FCS students who inspire me and give me hope for the future.
Thoughtful and smart colleagues who help children live the mission each day.
Generous and loving parents who support our school community.
Alumni who love our school and enjoy returning to visit.
A school with a strong reputation, full enrollment, and healthy finances.

Wishing you a Thanksgiving filled with opportunities to give thanks and give to others.

In Partnership,
Angela 


Today: Giving Season Begins

FCS is incredibly grateful to parents, grandparents, friends, and teachers and staff who give their resources to advance FCS’s mission and program. Today, Cathy Jenkins, who recently joined FCS as the Director of the Annual Fund, launches the 2020 Annual Fund. Christine begins the home stretch of the Endowment Fund campaign. You will soon receive a letter asking for your support. In addition to all of the ways that you give to FCS, please consider a charitable gift to our school, ensuring that we fulfill our mission, today and into the future. 

In gratitude,

Angela
