1st Day Success! Many thanks to our students, faculty, and staff for a great first day. Between the weather and how smoothly everything went, we could not ask for a better day.
Happy First Day of School! We are off to a great start. So happy to have our Wolves back!
Our faculty and staff enjoy lunch together before the start of what is sure to be an amazing school year.
Another exciting day of walkthroughs and ice cream before the first day of school tomorrow. Thank you to our teachers and our PTA. Get a good night's sleep, Wolves!
This family is also excited for the first day of school tomorrow.
Even nature is anticipating the start of school. We saw anxious parents and students waiting at the Kossmann oak tree before 1st day of school.
FKS was excited this afternoon to see our 2nd and 3rd graders, and their families, for the annual Welcome Back the Pack Walkthrough to meet their new teacher. Thank you teachers for having everything ready on your first day back. Again, many thanks to our PTA and the volunteer sundae artists for making the day a little extra special. It was great to see our Wolves!
We'll see our Preschool, Kindergarten, 1st, 4th, 5th grade and STARS Wolves on Wednesday at 1:15. There is still plenty of ice cream left!
We welcomed our preschoolers, kindergartners, new students and their families for Bus Safety Orientation last week.

Happy August, Wolves! As we head into the dog days of summer, it's time to start thinking about getting ready for a new school year. Maybe go to the library and get some good books, take a few notes or draw some pictures of what you see and hear when you're outdoors, journal some thoughts on the events of your summer, and start taking notice of all of the numbers that you encounter in every day life - such as the number of days until your first day of school (31 from today)!
We are getting ready to have you back on September 1st!
The Flocktown Kossmann offices are closed today, July 1. Have a safe and enjoyable holiday weekend. Happy 4th of July!

Congratulations to our retirees. They served our school community well over the years. Our students, staff, and families all benefitted from their professionalism and expertise. We wish them good health and happiness on the next leg of their journey.
We clapped out our 5th graders this morning at their last FKS dismissal, following a trip through the Kossmann building. We wish them well at LVMS and beyond. They are off to being a Panther, but they were Wolves first and always! Congratulations to a wonderful class, their teachers over the years, and of course their families.
FKS 5th graders offer their handmade, ceramic Hopeful Hearts as a symbol of hope to those in need serviced by local organizations. We were privileged to host and gift our hearts to representatives of the Fairmount F.D. Long Valley Rescue Squad, W.T.P.D, Smiles for Margaret, Sarah's Fight for Hope, and Dr. Turnamian representing our schools. Thank you Mrs. Martire and Mrs. Hemberger for your hard work to make this community service project a success. Thank you also to Mrs. Fessenden for the beautiful song.
We had another beautiful day for Kossmann Field Day on Tuesday. Many thanks to Mrs. Hanna and Mr. Churchill for the fun stations and making this event happen. Thank you also to our parent volunteers who staffed the stations and had just as much fun as our Wolves!
FKS Spring Carnival is back! What a great way to bring our school community together after a challenging, yet very successful school year. Thank you to our PTA Carnival Committee and all of the volunteers who made it happen.
