This is a great school!! I am currently a student at FCS, the teachers there are very nice, and very helpful. FCS has won one gold medalion and a ton of silver ones!!! This is a very small school, but a great school, the sixth grade class all got a's and b's this year for grades, so i'm pretty sure they do a wonderful job!
