Sandy Graff reads to FES kindergarteners during a unit on fairy tales and castles.

Mrs. Leavins' 3rd graders have been studying the Underground Railroad as part of Black History Month. Parents joined their children on an Underground Railroad simulation. Students experienced the frustration and sadness of being a slave on the Underground Railroad. Only 6 of the 18 students were able to reach freedom after several failed attempts.

Trinity Fellowship Bible Church in conjunction with Destin Walmart donated shoes and socks for FES students. The faculty and students would like to thank them for their generosity and support.
