There are a lot of exciting events going on at FHUMSHS tomorrow night (April 28th) that we hope you are able to join us for! First, we will be holding our 2nd Middle School Informational Forum starting at 5:30 pm. We plan on discussing athletics, clubs, and other extracurricular opportunities. We will also show a 3-D tour of the Middle School construction.
Afterwards, we will be holding our first Spring POPS Concert in over two years! This event begins at 6:00 pm in the gymnasium. Please come and support our FHU music program!
Our Slater students had a great time exploring the student art show, the member's exhibit, and the sculpture grounds at the Southern Vermont Art Center! It was a wonderful opportunity to experience local creativity!
This year's "A Red Carpet Event" Junior Prom was enjoyed by all that attended! Everyone looked wonderful and had a great time! It's hard to believe these "kiddos" will be Seniors in a few short months!
Congratulations to Anthony, Royal, and Nikolai's successful robotics team competition! Below is a quick synopsis from a team mentor:
April 14-16 the team competed at the New England District Championship FIRST Robotics Competition. The team competed against the top 80 teams in New England, ultimately ranking 15th out of 182 registered teams in New England. The team earned the Engineering Inspiration Award which qualified them to compete at the FIRST World Championship in Houston, TX. Due to the short turnaround time between the New England Championship and the World Championship, and lack of funding, the team will not be traveling to compete. The team continues to stay active year round, attending off-season competitions, performing demonstrations at various local events, and participating in community service activities.
Our Junior Class will be presenting their Personalized Learning Plan (PLP) Core Values projects on May 4th starting at 9:30 am (the picture shows one of our students assembeling a Marine pull-up bar for a project demonstration). This event is open to our larger Slater community. Please join us in supporting our Juniors!
Our next Middle School Family Forum is IN-PERSON this Thursday, April 28th at 5:30 p.m. in the FHU Cafeteria! Join us to hear about athletics and extracurricular activities, as well as other topics. We look forward to seeing you there!

Thank you to all of our wonderful judges that visited to check out the door decorations for the Be You Club's "Positive Door" contest! All of the Inquiry classroom doors were creatively designed to send an overarching message of kindness and positivity. It was truly a great way to wrap up the week before the Spring vacation!
