🦔 1st Grade Hedgehog Fun! 🍂
After meeting a real hedgehog, our 1st graders dove deeper by learning all about these adorable creatures and then taking their learning outdoors. They even created their own hedgehogs and camouflaged them in the tree line.

Our kindergarteners had so much fun creating nature craft ornaments while learning all about Christmas trees! 🌲✨ What a joyful way to learn, create, and celebrate the season.
🌲🔥 Our 5th and 6th graders have been busy learning in the snowy outdoors this December!
Students have been practicing important outdoor survival skills, including safely building fires, and learning outdoor first aid such as how to prevent and care for blisters and how to respond to both minor and major wounds while outside.
It’s been wonderful to see their confidence, teamwork, and problem-solving skills grow through hands-on learning in nature!

The Kinder SI class had such a heartwarming afternoon visiting the residents at Fountain View Assisted Living! Our class had the special blessing of being community builders and spreading joy to others. The kids were amazing, so kind, so gentle, and so excited to interact with the elders who live there.
They proudly brought the cutest turkeys made out of shapes to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃🍁 It was a beautiful reminder of how meaningful simple acts of kindness can be. Grateful for moments like these!

🎃 ¡Día de la Calabaza en Kinder Spanish Immersion! 🎃
With the beautiful cooler weather here, we were excited to celebrate Pumpkin Day and enjoy God's creation during this special fall season. 🍁✨
Our little learners had a great day of creative learning, reading, writing, and exploring all things pumpkin! They worked with sizes, counting, estimation, and addition through hands-on activities and group collaboration.
In class, students teamed up to solve math problems and compare results, strengthening not only their academic skills but also their teamwork and communication. 🤝📚
We also learned about the history of pumpkins and how God has uniquely blessed cultures around the world to use this amazing vegetable in so many ways.
To end our day on a sweet note, we enjoyed a fall treat of donuts, apples, apple cider, and apple juice! 🍩🍎🍏

🎉 Kindergarten Field Trip Fun! 🚌✨
Our kindergarten classes had an amazing adventure at Sandcastles Children’s Museum in Ludington! 🏰🎨
This incredible museum is all about learning through play, offering hands-on exhibits that spark creativity, curiosity, and a lifelong love of learning. From building and pretending to exploring and discovering, our young learners were fully immersed in the magic of imagination and exploration! 🧠💡
After the museum, they made the most of the beautiful day with some outdoor fun at Waterfront Park & Playground! 🌳☀️ The kids had a blast running, climbing, and playing together, the perfect way to wrap up a day full of learning and laughter.

We had an exciting visit from the Fremont Fire Department! The firefighters taught us all about fire safety rules, showed us their gear, and even gave us a close-up look at their fire truck. The kids loved learning how to stay safe and were thrilled to meet real community heroes!
Last week Kindergarten and 2nd grade Spanish Immersion students had the opportunity to be servant workers and community builders by packing food for Hand2Hand. With joyful hearts, we packed 107 bags! These were delivered on Thursday afternoon so that students from Fremont Public Schools will had food to take home for the weekend. What a wonderful way to show God’s love in action!
Decker Building Takes Over The Blessing Box
Our Decker classrooms are caring for the Blessing Box on the north side of the Decker building! This is a “give as you can, take as you need” community resource, giving families and community members a chance to receive extra support. Students gave the box a fresh coat of paint and decorated it. Each month they will donate, organize, and share items—giving FCS a chance to Glow 🌟and our students a chance to Shine their Light🌞, which is our school theme this year, while spreading the love of Jesus in our community.
What a fun week First Grade Spanish Immersion had learning about pumpkins! On Thursday they had their pumpkin day and invited their PreK buddies into their class to show them everything they learned. The first graders showed such ownership of their learning! We are so grateful to be able to provide these opportunities for our students!
The Middle School Adventure Club enjoyed a beautiful fall day kayaking down the Muskegon River! 🍂🚣♀️
Our 4th and 8th graders took a walking field trip to The Arts Place last week to experience the en plein air exhibit! 🎨 They learned about the art of painting outdoors, admired the beautiful pieces on display, and even enjoyed a tour of The Arts Place. Students also had the chance to explore the gallery and see the incredible local artwork for sale.
Our 6th–8th grade girls’ volleyball team lit up the gym on Friday with an exciting Glow Volleyball practice complete with blacklights and glowsticks! What a fun way to build skills and team spirit!
Our 5th and 6th grade Outdoor Education students have been hard at work updating and expanding the hiking trail they began last school year! This fall, they’re creating a special gathering space in the Big Woods near the towering Red Oak along the trail. Next time you’re out for a hike, be sure to pause and rest on the log benches they’ve added!

Our first two weeks of school have been full of fresh air, hands-on learning, and joyful exploration in God’s creation! From our youngest learners to our middle schoolers, students have been discovering that the outdoors is one of the best classrooms of all.
Highlights include:
8th & 3rd grade buddies spending time together outside
7th grade science students reflecting and observing the beauty of God’s world
3OE students going on a noun walk to find people, places, and things around school
Choosing special “sit spots” in the treeline for ongoing reflection throughout the year
78 OE SS crafting “ancient” artifacts from natural items
Releasing a butterfly and watching it take flight 🦋
Even blazing a hiking trail to make way for new adventures!
We love seeing students learn, explore, and worship outdoors—reminded daily that “The earth is the Lord’s and everything in it.” (Psalm 24:1)
🌳 Here’s to a year filled with wonder, discovery, and God’s fingerprints all around us!
Adventure Club hiked the trails of Branstrom Park for the November Adventure!
Thank you to the @fremont fire department for coming to visit yesterday! We thank you for your sacrifice and willingness to help others and educate our students about all the important roles you and your team fill.
Thank you very much to all of the students (and parents) that brought in can goods for our can drive! These will go so far in benefitting TrueNorth community services!
