Teacher Appreciation - 4th GradeThe FFC has launched a monthly teacher appreciation initiative with the goal of strengthening our community even more by getting to know our teachers a little better -- keeping us together while we're distance learning.

The teachers will then answer some of those questions (either in a video or written down) and we’ll share the answers with the school. Our 4th grade teachers rose to ... read full article |
