Belated thank you to Gala donors

posted May 16, 2013, 8:53 PM by FSK Website   [ updated May 16, 2013, 8:54 PM ]

The FSK PTA would like to publicly thank two donors who made the Gala children's party a rocking good time.

Escape from New York Pizza @ Haight St.
&
Bi-Rite Market


Escape from New York Pizza donated all the pizza the kids went crazy munching all night. Bi-Rite donated several platters of appetizers to get them going right away. If it were not for these two donors, the children might have come creeping upstairs from their party lair like a pack of safari animals. Luckily the the equally well fed and imbibing adults didn't need to ration. Win Win!

California Business for Education Excellence Honors FSK

posted Apr 18, 2013, 9:37 PM by FSK Website   [ updated Apr 18, 2013, 9:38 PM ]


Francis Scott Key has been recognized by California Business for Education Excellence and placed on its honor roll for 2012 due to our success in raising student academic achievement. 

Excerpts from the letter received read: 

After an extensive analysis of student achievement data for every public school in California, your school stood well above the rest in getting your students to grade level proficiency and beyond.

It is for that reason we have named you a California Business for Education Excellence Honor Roll School for 2012.

...

This is a testament to the relentless focus on results for students that you, your staff and your peers have shown over the years.  It is also a strong statement about how success is spreading in public schools across the state.

Yea for us! Great work FSK teachers, staff and students!

International Day

posted Nov 28, 2012, 9:46 PM by FSK Website   [ updated Nov 28, 2012, 9:54 PM ]

International Day
is this Friday, November 30th. To volunteer contact Melissa Washington at president@fskey.org.

We celebrate the many wonderful cultures of this world. During the school day children "travel" to different countries with their passports and learn about what makes them unique. Each grade level represents a different country and children learn about the country at their grade level plus two others. They bring along their passports and get them stamped at each country.

At night the hundreds of people come together to enjoy a potluck where families bring dishes from their cultures or where ever they feel like. Don't count calories on that night!
