Basketball

2/5-2/10 - TSIAA Varsity Basketball Tournament, South Division, TBD
2/12-2/17 - TSIAA State Varsity Basketball Tournament, TBD 

Lost & Found

Don't forget to stop by the tables in front of my office and either look for your child's items, your tupperware that had their lunch in it, or hey, for next year's warm coat. Or that ever elusive 1 shoe that you've been hunting ages for. Trust me. It's more than likely here. Remember, everything's $1.

And for those who don't like that I didn't do this on the first week of February, don't worry. I'm positive we will have another sale really soon.

Re-Enrollment

If your student is currently enrolled and you would like them to continue their education here at FRCS, please come by the office and get your registration fees in before the 15th. As of last Friday, we're already 80% full for next year. 

This is not the time you want to hone your procrastination techniques. The Financial Office is open from 7:45-3:30 Monday through Friday.

Order A Valentine Due 2/9

We're rounding the bend and we're trying to make it easy on you. Order your kiddo a valentine (order form below or on my desk) by tomorrow, 2/9, and it will be delivered on the 14th. What's in it for you? You automatically hit hero status for a day. Not bad, not bad. :)


District Fine Arts Winners

Congratulations to those who represented FRCS in Hendersonville last Thursday and Friday! It was so exciting to see all your happy faces when you came back. So many interesting stories - thank you for stopping by to fill me in on details - I loved hearing all about it. And congratulations to all those who are going on to State in March.

Speaking of winners - congratulations are in store for our MS Girls Basketball team winning the TSIAA State Championship last week - 46-35 against Christian Community, 46-35. Grace Avery was named All-Tournament and Lakelyn Dempsey was MVP. Our MS Boys lost in the semi-finals, 34-35.

Black History Month - Jesse Owens



  • Jesse Owens was born September 12, 1913, and was the youngest of 10 children. At a young age, he found that he had a passion for running. Working jobs after school, Jesse's track coach would let him practice before school.
  • Jesse Owens attended the Ohio State University and was affectionately nicknamed the 'Buckeye Bullet'. He won eight NCAA championships while there.
  • Participating in the 1936 Olympics in Berlin, Germany, Jesse set 3 world records and tied another record in less than 1 hour.
  • Adolf Hitler was in attendance during the 1936 Olympics and witnessed Jesse Owens win 4 gold medals - 100 meter race, long jump, 200 meters, and 100 meter relay. 
  • Right before the races, Jesse was approached by Adi Dassler - creator of Adidas shoes - and was persuaded to wear his brand of shoes in the races. This would be the first time a Black American held a sponsorship for a major company.
  • Jesse Owen's record breaking 4 gold medal wins wouldn't be equaled until Carl Lewis in the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles.
