Dear FAS Family,
This is a follow-up message regarding a threat made against the school. Law enforcement has concluded the investigation at the school and is in contact with the families involved. At this time, we believe we are all clear from this threat.
We want to thank everyone that brought this to our attention and the Clare County Sheriff's Office for their support on this issue.
As said earlier, the safety of our students and staff is our top priority.
Respectfully,
Steve Scoville
FAS Superintendent
The High School Robotics Team will be doing an Apparel Order for Robotics hoodies, shirts & hats. If you are interested please grab an order form from any of the 4 offices (Admin, High School, Middle School or Elementary School). Money and order forms are due back by Valentine’s Day and should be dropped back off to any of the 4 offices. Orders will be delivered by March 6th. That's just in time to be able to wear the apparel while the Robotics Team is at their first competition in Mt. Pleasant. More details to come!
Dear FAS Family,
On the afternoon of 2.3.25 a threat was made against the school. Law enforcement investigated the threat and its credibility. The initial indications were that this was not a credible threat.
Despite the initial indications of this threat not being a credible threat against the school. We have an increased police presence on campus while we continue to investigate this issue. The puspose of this message is to eliminate the rumors that are growing around this situation.
If you know of a real and or credible threat, please call 911. We take all threats very seriously, and continue to make the safety of our students and staff our top priority!
Thank You!
Our school does a great deal for our students’ education and activities, but our needs always outpace our funding and we are hoping to get your support. Please consider participating in this fundraiser so we can provide your students with the experiences they deserve. Our ninth grade class is fundraising to fund prom and graduation. These funds will help with the cost for decorating for floats, dances, hallways, and hopefully we will be able to offer a class trip once they are seniors.
The 9th grade class is using Century Resources to help fundraise.
If you select one of the links below you will be given the option to purchase several items including cheesecakes, baked goods, cookie doughs, meats, and more. Brochure sales will yield 40% profit. Any donations we receive online we will receive 75%. If we receive checks or cash donations 100% of that money will go into our 9th grade class account to benefit our students.
If you live LOCALLY please click on this link and the student will deliver the product to you.

If you live OUT OF TOWN or wish to just donate, please click on this link and the product will be shipped to your home address.
