Its character counts week at FCMS. Today was "wear pajamas for responsibility" day. As a result our school is literally a zoo. We might actually be one of the larger dairy farms in Richardson County today. It is a great day to be a Tiger! (or a dairy cow)
Thanks to the FCMS National Junior Honor Society students for the candy and card for principals month. You all are the best!!!

On Wednesday, October 6th, the Falls City FFA chapter competed in District Land Judging in Beatrice, NE. There were 18 students from our chapter who attended this contest and out of over 200 students! Students learned the measurements for judging soil and practiced during school. Students were split into groups and weren’t allowed to talk while competing. There are four holes to judge at the contest and for each hole, there are 11 sections on the card to be filled out. Students judge the depth of soil, surface texture, permeability, slope, the thickness of surface, and erosion. Then they use a capability chart to determine the land capability class and mark the best boxes based on the first section. Finally, they go through the fertilizer and soil amendments, PH, Nitrogen, Phosphorus, and Potassium. Our highest finisher earning a red ribbon at 32 place was Brylee Gilkerson. Others earning red ribbons were, Makayla Mason, Wyatt Olberding, Ray Feek, Eliza Kuker, and Justin Brewer. Earning white ribbons were; Malesa Wickham, Havyn Ruiz, Jozie Kirkendall, and Jodi Uhri.
