Dear FSE Parents,
We had a great first day of school! Thank you for all the support and preparation you took to get your children ready! They came to school ready to learn and reconnect with their friends. Please see some of the awesome pictures below. Don't forget to log onto Twitter and search #oneflagstone for daily communication and pictures of all that is happening at FSE!
During the first week of each month, I will send out this blog to send updates and communication from me regarding FSE's goals, events, and happenings. Each Thursday the office will send out links through an email blast of activities and calendar events. This is our way to communicate with families in a timely efficient way. As always, if you have questions don't hesitate to call our office, we are here to support all families.
One big change in our calendar this year is that we will do ONE assembly a month to recognize and honor our students and classrooms. This will be the first Friday of each month, and this starts next Friday. Parents are welcome to come and stand by the staff to be a part of this FSE celebration.
Next week is Digital Citizenship Week. All students K-6 will be participating in discussion and lessons around how to use technology appropriately. Once students successfully complete this five-day course they will be assigned their personal device for the year. Please make sure that you read through and sign the below docs agreeing to our technology policies with your child. These need to be signed and brought back to your child's teacher prior to technology being given to your child. To have fun and celebrate this learning we ask that students dress to match a different theme each day-see the flier below for more detail.
Have a wonderful weekend and we will see you back here on Monday for our first week of school!
Sincerely,
Kelli Smith, FSE Principal

Message From Our Superintendent
Please Welcome Our New School Counselor Patti Roberts!
Hello FSE Families!
As we begin the new school year, I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself. My name is
Patti Roberts and I am Flagstone Elementary’s new School Counselor. I am very happy to be a
part of the FSE community and am excited for all that this year will bring.
Patti Roberts and I am Flagstone Elementary’s new School Counselor. I am very happy to be a

As a School Counselor, my primary responsibilities are to promote the academic, career,
and social/emotional development of all our students. We will work on developing skills and overcoming obstacles in the classroom. We will explore career interests and possibilities for their future. I am also here to help guide our students as they navigate the many ccomplicated situations and feelings associated with their elementary years. To accomplish these goals, I will meet with
students individually and in small groups, conduct classroom counseling lessons, talk with parents,
collaborate with teachers and staff, and consult with community organizations to help meet the
needs of all FSE students.

I believe that every child is capable of success in school. I also recognize that this does not look
the same for all students. As your child’s school counselor, my goal is to help them discover their
strengths and what makes them special. We will learn what tools they need for success and will
work to build their confidence to know that they are capable of whatever they want to achieve.

I look forward to serving our students, families, and community. I will be at Flagstone on Tuesdays,
Thursdays, and every other Friday. The other half of my time will be spent at Sage Canyon
Elementary, so I will be most easily accessible by email. Please feel free to reach out with
any questions, thoughts, or concerns you may have.
