A Day Fouse Elementary Improves Technology Landscape The Fouse Elementary PTO is excited to announce the purchase of 30 iPads for use by the students at Fouse. The purchase is a result of the successful school Walk-A-Thon in the fall. The devices are expected to be deployed within the next month for immediate use. The purchase will complement the substantial technology improvements made by the District, allowing teachers and staff more flexibility in developing and delivering curriculum to meet the needs of a diverse student population. Urgent Need for Donated Games/Toys Our wonderful duty aides are requesting donations of new or gently used board games and decks of cards for immediate use during indoor recess. Winter can be especially difficult for our Foxes as recess, since they are stuck inside, and any diversions are helpful! When spring arrives we could also use playground balls, footballs and soccer balls. Donations can be dropped off at the front office of the school. Variety Show Preview Night Reschedule Please note that the preview night for the Variety Show has been changed to Thursday, February 26, 5:30-8:00pm. Preview night is held at Fouse in the gymnasium. Invention Convention – Sign up by March 2 The Invention Convention is a competition designed to inspire, encourage, reward, and recognize students for using their creativity and imagination in developing new solutions to everyday problems. All 4th & 5th graders are eligible to submit their original inventions to the school competition. One award will be given for each grade level, with the top award going to the student with the highest score from either grade. The finalist will advance to the Greater Columbus Area regional competition on May 9, 2015 at Columbus State Community College.
