🦅 Our Fossum family is going through a difficult time, and we are asking our community to come together to support two of our beloved staff members who have each recently lost their fathers. Both are incredibly dedicated members of our campus who have given so much of themselves to our students, our teams, and our school family. As they take time away to be with their loved ones, they are in need of our support. At Fossum, we are more than coworkers — we are family. If you are able to help in any way, it would mean the world to them and to all of us. Thank you for keeping their families in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. ❤️
