🍎 We have some great events coming up, so check this out!

📚 Read-a-thon

Read-a-thon was a success! Thank you to everyone that shared with friends and family and encouraged their child to read. Money is still trickling in, and we’re almost to our goal of $60,000!

🚙 VIP

VIP Auction for 2nd quarter begins Monday, October 6th at 4PM and ends Wednesday, October 8th at 8PM.
​

🍿 Drive-In

Drive-in is Oct 23rd. If you’re new to FAAM, this event is a family-favorite. We gather in the ASU parking lot close to our school and watch a movie together. There is pizza, popcorn, candy, and drinks, and it’s always a lot of fun. Students can vote for the movie they want to see Monday-Wednesday, 10/6-10/8. Be on the lookout for information about pre-ordering tickets and food!

​
​🎥 The Wildcat Den

Each morning, our 5th graders, along with some help from FAAM teachers, make the morning announcements. These announcements are actually really helpful for parents to listen to as well. They post the video every day on their Facebook page. Give the page a follow, and watch each day to stay updated on what's happening at FAAM!
