Meteorologist Darby Bybee from 40/29 News was invited to Mrs. Pittman’s music class today!
Mrs. Pittman, the music teacher at Asbell Elementary, has a second-grade musical coming up called, FLAKES! It's all about snowflakes! Mr. Bybee shared his knowledge about snow, weather safety, and his exciting job as a meteorologist on television. Students asked many questions and were enthusiastic about all things weather!

Chef Getzin and the Fayetteville High School Child Nutrition staff are hard at work today preparing meals for students and staff! Chef Getzin is here working with the Child Nutrition Department, thanks to a generous grant funded and supported by the Lifetime Foundation.
Today is an Asian-themed lunch:
Sweet and Sour Chicken
Spicy Orange Chicken
Fried or Steamed Rice
Stir-Fry Fresh Vegetables &
Egg Rolls
Many thanks to Chef Getzin and the Lifetime Foundation for this great opportunity!


FPS Child Nutrition staff enjoyed hands-on professional development with chef Kent Getzin. Chef Getzin joins us from Chelan, Washington, thanks to a generous grant funded and supported by the Lifetime Foundation.
The Child Nutrition staff was instructed to create original recipes after learning about the fundamentals of taste physiology and flavor development. Food was then prepared by staff using the new recipes, and staff members all sampled the food in a taste test. Recipes approved by the staff will be used throughout the district in our lunch program!


Friday, September 23 will be an Online Learning Day for our staff members. Students will not attend school on Friday.


Just a reminder - we will not have school tomorrow, Friday 9/23/22. Have a great 3 day weekend, and we will see you Roadrunners on Monday!


Mark your calendars for Lifetouch Picture day - Friday, October 15th.
