Kindergartener FCES Leader in Me September winner

Fulton County Elementary School kindergarten student, Travis Carlisle, and his mother, Teresa Blodgett, were the winners of the FCES Leader in Me September Family Challenge. As a Leader in Me school district, FCES practices the Seven Habits of Effective Kids.

Each month families are asked to study and to follow the seven habits at home.

This month’s winners received a $20 gift certificate from Broadway Pizza.
The September challenge asked each family to read The Dot by Peter Reynolds and to design a unique dot to represent their family.

The entire school read the book in the library as part of the International Dot Day celebration. Every student discussed the theme of the book and created a dot as part of a school wide art installation project coordinated by Ashley Coulson and Pam Bennett.

The Fulton County Dot Project is displayed in the Anchor Strong hallway to remind students, staff and families to get inspired and to make their mark.
