Cipriano Run and the Fordson Homecoming Parade

Although Friday was a half-day, it was a busy day! Nearly a dozen 4th and 5th graders competed in the Annual Cipriano Race at Ford Field. Congratulations to all of our runners, and especially Mourad in 4th grade who finished 2nd in the city and Dalih in 5th grade who finished in 10th place.

Nearly 75 students and parents braved the rain and participated in the Annual Fordson Homecoming Parade on Friday. What a great event!

Breakfast and Arrival

Just a reminder…  Breakfast is served from 8:00-8:25 and students must enter through the Cafeteria doors.  If students arrive before 8:25 they will be directed to enter through the cafeteria doors to eat breakfast and not invited to leave the cafeteria until 8:25.  At 8:25 all students who are eating breakfast will then be chaperoned to the hallway by their classroom.  Students not eating breakfast and arriving from 8:25-8:40 may enter at the front doors, door on Ternes and/or the parking lot door will go directly to the hallway by their classroom.  These procedures are for the safety of all of our students.  Your cooperation and understanding is greatly appreciated.
