Today was our first day of the new curriculum being implemented. This week's theme is My School. As part of their circle time and Conscious Discipline, students made commitments. Pictured are the fireflies as they put their popsicle sticks in their safe keeper box. #WeAreFlashes #HomeOfTheTrailblazers #FutureFlashes #ProudToBeAFlash

Join our team!

THE BIG REVEAL! We had many guesses and while we wish it were a pool, we now have a BIKE PATH! Teddy took an inaugural spin this morning and was cheered on by the Ducklings. The field and bike path will be open to our students starting on Tuesday, as the center surface needs one more day to sit. #WeAreFlashes #HomeOfTheTrailblazers #FutureFlashes #ProudToBeAFlash

Some Ducklings had an August snowball fight! #WeAreFlashes #HomeOfTheTrailblazers #FutureFlashes #ProudToBeAFlash

It's the first day for our half-day students! #WeAreFlashes #HomeOfTheTrailblazers #FutureFlashes #ProudToBeAFlash

We practiced some drills today for safety! We completed an evacuation drill, shelter drill for weather and lock down drill. Students talked about the drills before they happened and read social stories about the drills. The students did an amazing job! #WeAreFlashes #HomeOfTheTrailblazers #FutureFlashes #ProudToBeAFlash

Go to our FTCSC YouTube or Facebook page to watch our video! What an incredible start to the 2025–2026 school year! Our FTCSC Flashes Community returned full of energy, smiles, and purpose.

Together, we MAKE A DIFFERENCE—in the lives of students, staff, and our community through PURPOSEFUL LEARNING and MEANINGFUL COLLABORATION.
