After that, any books not turned in will be marked as lost, and a fee will be added to your account. If that fee stays on your record, you’ll need to come back (even from high school!) to take care of it before graduation. So do your future self a favor—turn in your books or pay any fees by next week! 📚😊

What an unforgettable day at Fossum! 🦅 We started the morning with a warm welcome from our namesake, Michael Fossum himself! Later, we cheered on our former Falcons as they took their final walk through our halls during their Top 10% Senior Walk 👏🏽 And to top it all off, our 6th graders had the incredible opportunity to learn more about Mr. Fossum during a special presentation. A day full of pride, inspiration, and Falcon spirit! ❤️🖤
Our 6th grade Falcons showed out on the track! 💪🏽 From hurdles to relays, this group brought the energy, hustle, and heart. The future of Fossum Athletics is looking bright! 🦅🔥
