Something spooky is happening at FMES! Our staff are getting a head start on Halloween and already rocking their costumes in the halls. You might recognize a few familiar faces… or you might have to take a double look!

See who you can spot.

Happy Spooky Season, Indians!

A huge thank you to everyone who came out to our Halloween Movie Night! We had a very big and unexpected crowd, and we were so happy to see all the excited faces and families come together to enjoy the evening.

An even bigger thank you goes to everyone who donated food. We ate so well! The P.I.E. Committee provided hamburgers and hot dogs, popcorn and a sweet treat. While our amazing community brought the rest. We had so many salads, desserts, chips, drinks, and much more. Your generosity truly helped make the night special.

Through events like these, P.I.E. hopes to promote community, togetherness, and a strong sense of belonging. We want our school to be a happy place where everyone feels welcome, connected, and able to come together.

Thank you for continuing to support P.I.E. and FMES. We look forward to seeing you at our next event! Askwali/ Kwah-kwaii ❤️🖤
