It’s School Nurses Day and we’re more than happy to celebrate Nurse Susan Duggar today! She is a ferocious caretaker of our students and staff. She is so knowledgeable and vigilant, but she also brings abundant compassion to her work as well. She’s an incredible asset. We are so fortunate and grateful for Dr. Duggar. We love her for what she does, how she does it, and who she is! #CougarsLEAD

Big shoutout to our admin for providing pancakes and sausage this morning and drinks at lunchtime today! Teacher Appreciation Week has been phenomenal! 🥞🥞🥞
In recognition of School Principals’ Day, Florence Chapel is pretty darn excited to celebrate Josh Kay, our leader and our captain. Mr. Kay had a vision for what he wanted FCMS to be, and as it beginning to take that shape, it is easy to see that everyone is better for it. We work in an environment where people respect and care for one another, where excellence in academics, arts, music, athletics, and character is persistently acknowledged, and where we have fun doing the work we are called to do. Josh’s fingerprints are all over that. And we are grateful that is true. Thank you, Mr. Kay for making a difference by helping us to be our best. FCMS loves you!
