Dear Parents,
Math Bowl
Our 4th grade students did a wonderful job last night in the HSE Math Bowl as they placed a
strong 7th out of all of the teams. We are so proud of them and their hard work and a big thank
you to Mrs. Rhodes as well!
FES PTO Mattress Sale
The mattress sale is taking place this Saturday from 10:00-5:00 in the gym at Lantern Road Elementary as we have a friendly competition to sell more mattresses for FES than LRE. Skylerts
have been going out on this and there is again additional information here in the Tiger Tales.
Guest “Mystery Reader” and Tech Help
I had a lot of fun this week by being a guest reader in Mrs. Mohr’s 3 rd grade class and I also had a
“working lunch” with two of our many tech savvy students as Ethan and Vaughn gave me my
first lesson on how to make an iMovie.

FES FAMILY FUN NIGHT
On Tuesday, February 23, the Fishers Elementary students, parents and staff helped set the FES world
record for the most people doing the Chicken Dance at one time! 140 people participated in this dance
(and the Whip and Nae Nae, Cha Cha Slide, Y.M.C.A. and Hokey Pokey)! Thank you all for your willingness to be silly as a school community, and congratulations on setting this record!!
Dollars for Seniors Nears
As the winds of March blow in so does the annual Dollars for Seniors (DFS) tradition! Soon, more
than 100 local seniors will take to the phones in a telethon style scholarship fundraiser. What makes
DFS so special is that it rewards student effort and is not simply based on merit or need. Students
from both area high schools work together to learn about local philanthropy, reflect on their time at
HSE Schools, set goals, and try to earn money to help both themselves and their classmates pursue
their higher education goals! It takes a lot of courage and a little practice for our students to dial the
phone, so consider answering the call and pledging to help! Or you can give directly online in honor
of the Class of 2016 at http://hsefoundation.org/events/dollars-for-seniors.
Attention all Tigers!
Girl Scout Troop #416 wants your old, dry up markers! The
troop has partnered with Crayola and Mrs. Jarrett to bring
the Colorcycle program to Fishers Elementary
School. When your markers run out, recycle them! Any
marker can be recycled including: regular markers, dry
erase markers, highlighters and sharpies. Please look for
and use the provided containers to collect any used up
markers. At the end of the year, Troop #416 will collect and
ship the dried up makers to Crayola to be repurposed and recycled.
Thanks for your help in protecting the environment!
HSE21 IN ACTION!
Take a peek into a third grade block and see how technology is used as one tool to amplify instruction.
Notice the variety of tools in methods that these young mathematicians use to show their thinking processes!
