FES had the September Cougar Way Assembly today. In the beginning of the year skit, Auntie Em bought Dorothy new, sparkly shoes for the first day of school. In today's skit, Dorothy was at school with her friend and had to change her shoes for PE class. While Dorothy was at PE, the Wicked Witch blew in with the Tornado of Bad Character and broke the Trustworthiness Pillar by stealing Dorothy's ruby slippers! When Dorothy returned from PE, she was devastated to learn that her beloved shoes were missing!
The theme at FES this year is the Wizard of Oz. The skits at our Cougar Way Assemblies are going to have the characters from the Wizard of Oz helping us learn the character pillars along the yellow brick road. Our Para Educators are representing our Lollipop Guild who hand out lollipops to our Star Cougars. Thank you to Lynne Harris for making awesome shirts for our paras to wear during our assemblies. Congratulations to our September Star Cougars! We are so proud of you! We also celebrated September birthdays today.
Thank you to our high school football team for greeting Durant students this morning for our first High Five Friday of the school year!

Another big thank you to Mrs. Volker for organizing and doing this for our students- Go Cougars!

Cami has consistently pushed herself and has made a significant impact on our cross-country team this season." -Coach Jones
