Today three of our Sumner-Fredericksburg high school students participated in the 'LooCon IT Day at the Waterloo Career Center. Over 230 students participated in the event representing 29 schools.
The expert panel included six of the best Cyber professionals in Iowa! Nick Dideriksen from VGM Forbin, Todd Burzynski from UnityPoint, Samantha Dahlby from newbo.co, Trevor Kems an Iowa professional pen-tester, Tyler Coan from First Security Bank, and Brandon Blankenship from Pro-Circular. The panel spoke about a variety of topics and then answered questions from the students. In addition, Hawkeye Community College, Iowa State University, Indian Hills College, DMACC, UNI, and Kirkwood College all spoke to the students about their IT programs.
At the end of the day, the students competed in teams of 3-5 in a "Capture the Flag" event with the top 3 teams receiving prizes at the end. Sumner-Fredericksburg, with the addition of two Riceville students, placed 7th overall. Congratulations, Tyson Rochford, Mason Britt, and Hunter Nelson!!

Sumner-Fredericksburg has partnered with Scheels to provide discounted Spring sports equipment. The 20% discount is valid from 3/1-3/10 and is good for in-store or online shopping.
Exciting news for Durant and Fredericksburg elementary students- Coach sloth orders have arrived!! Mrs. Hammond and Miss Tonne have distributed the orders to classroom teachers, so be on the lookout for your books to come home! If you missed out on ordering or if you wish to purchase more books, feel free to order online through Coach Sloth's website (coachsloth.com)!
During the month of March, FES will be focusing on the CARING character pillar. For our Caring Project, we want students and staff to bring in spare change that will be donated to the Fredericksburg Food Pantry. To hopefully increase donations and fun, we are adding a little competition to this project. Each Kindergarten through 4th Grade classroom teacher has a container. Students and staff will put their change in the teacher's container of their choice. The teacher who has the most money in his or her container will have to put on red lipstick and kiss a pig at our next assembly!
