During the winter months, Upshur County Schools may call a Non-Traditional Instructional Day (NTID) instead of a traditional snow day.
If this were to happen, please follow the plan below to complete and return to school the next day. The plan is also available on our website.

FCES Parents/Guardians:
Please make sure you sign the Barn Hill Preserve form even if your child isn't buying anything. It is a permission form that allows your child to watch the presentation. If they don’t have it then they can’t watch it.

Reminder: We will be having our 2023 Christmas Concert on tomorrow. We will open the doors at 12:45 PM and begin the concert at 1:15 PM. The classroom parties will follow the concert. Please don't forget to bring proper ID to sign in. Santa will also be at the school first thing in the morning and the students will get their picture taken with him!

3rd, 4th and 5th Grade Families:
Be on the lookout for an information sheet for Monday's trip to WVU for the basketball game. We sent it home with kids today, but you can also see it on our Facebook page.
Have a good weekend!
