Fisher First Graders were treated to the perfect weather for a perfect day of fun and fellowship with their classmates while parents and family members were able to enjoy it from the stands.

The Fisher Family surprised Mary Townsend, longtime custodian and beloved member of the family, with a hearty congratulations on her last shift before her well-deserved retirement. Congratulations to Ms. Mary, and keep rocking the Tie-Die's!

Fisher Elementary School welcomed friends from the Oneida Herkimer Solid Waste Authority for an assembly to discuss the importance of keeping our Earth clean as we approach Earth Day on April 22nd.

Fisher students were challenged for the recent PARP program (Pick a Reading Partner) to read 2,025 books as a school in a 10 day span. If they accomplished this goal, Mr. Murphy agreed to get slimed. With 2,266 books read, Mr. Murphy gladly held up his end of the bargain with a fun end-of program assembly.

Mr. Murphy had so much slime poured on him that Mr. Pagnotta had to help into a trash bucket to roll him out of the gym. Thanks to Mr. P for his quick thinking! It was a great way to end a wonderful reading program. Mr. Murphy was happy to be slimed, as he was so proud of his students for reading all those books!

Today students and staff Rocked their Craziest Socks to promote and bring awareness to World Down Syndrome Day. Thanks to Mrs. Reff's class for leading the charge as we had many folks rocking their favorite socks in school!
