From FCUSD 168 & FCHS: Due to the possibility of rainy weather, the Grand March before tonight's Prom has been canceled. Prom will go on at Yummy's Event Center in Marion. Doors open at 7:30 with Dance scheduled from 8-11 pm.

Some of the CJHS Beta students made some sensory boxes for some of our classes. These will help the students in so many ways. They use them to relax and learn.

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.

We can't forget the staff Egg Hunt!
Thank you to the Sunshine Committee for hosting the egg hunt this year.
No falls or broken bones, I think that's a win. We have some of the best team players.









Fun Friday Football Our students got to meet a few of the SIU football players. Several of our students got to ask leadership questions to each individual player. Our students had the best time learning how school is so important even as they grow older.








Hey everyone! Come out and see all the Denning Staff.
We would love to see your kiddos.
