Reminder P/T conferences
Just after 8 p.m. as rain was coming down, two FCHS students were hit by a vehicle on Main St. as they were crossing to the Homecoming Dance at Max Morris Gym. They were taken to an area hospital to be checked out, and will be able to go home tonight. We thank the WFPD and WFFD for their help.
