FPS Families Support the Arts

Families were welcomed to Ferndale Lower Elementary (FLower) to visit classrooms, meet teachers, and learn about current curriculum. We are so thankful to all of our families for your support and engagement. What a great start for our Little Eagles!

FHS students and neighboring artists are enjoying the new CASA location! The Center for Advanced Studies & the Arts (CASA) is a consortium school serving Berkley, Clawson, Ferndale, Lamphere, Madison, Oak Park and Pontiac school districts. They offer sixteen Advanced Placement courses, a vibrant visual arts curriculum, and a robust advanced dance program. Their new location is at 22180 Parklawn in Oak Park.

Last week room 24 from FUEL had to create the tallest tower they could with only twenty sheets of paper! Watching everyone's creativity shine was so cool to see, and they created some pretty great towers in the process!

The district welcomed a few members of the Class of 1973 to campus for a building walk-through as part of their 50th Class Reunion weekend. Pictured here with Superintendent Goodrum is Bob McGee, reunion organizer and former Mayor of Ferndale. Mr. McGee made a stop by just to say a word of thanks from their class for the arrangements made for their visit!

UHS welcomed our new and returning students with our 'First 4 Days' programming. Students participated in a variety of discussions and activities throughout the week designed to familiarize students with UHS, our staff, and each other. The week culminated with field day activities to celebrate a great start to the school year.
