Parents,
We will be doing Rainy Day Dismissal today. We will load buses first then cars. If you are in a car, please wait until we motion for you to enter the loop in the back. Thank you.

We are thrilled to present the winners of Bossier Schools Purple Up T-Shirt Design Contest! The annual competition, sponsored by the Bossier Chamber of Commerce encourages students to showcase their talents as they promote the Month of the Military Child. You can show your support when you purchase your own t-shirt and more here https://bit.ly/purpleup2025.

Serving the community has been a pillar of FCA this school year. Their January service project was to bring boxes of crackers for the Food Bank of Northwest Louisiana. In just two days, members brought over 3 dozen boxes of crackers that will directly benefit families in the greater Shreveport-Bossier area. Thanks to everyone who donated to this worthwhile cause!
