📬 SPECIAL DELIVERY TO OUR FPMS FAMILY! 💌

Dear Fort Payne Middle School Students, Parents, Teachers, & Community,

If you’ve ever walked into a spotless classroom, eaten lunch at a squeaky-clean cafeteria table, or noticed our hallways shining like gold, we’ve got a secret for you…

It doesn't happen by magic! ✨ It happens because of our UNSTOPPABLE custodial team!

Today is National Custodians Appreciation Day, and we are sending out the BIGGEST, LOUDEST, and most grateful THANK YOU to the incredible crew keeping FPMS running every single day for our 6th, 7th, and 8th graders. 🧹💙

They work tirelessly behind the scenes—answering every mess-emergency, keeping us safe, and greeting everyone with a friendly smile. Simply put, they are true MVPs of Wildcat Nation! 🐾🏆

🌟 How can YOU celebrate them today?
Say It In Person: Give them a high-five or a big "THANK YOU!" when you see them in the halls.

Do Your Part: Pick up that extra piece of paper on the floor and keep your locker area tidy!

Leave a Note Below: Drop your favorite message of appreciation in the comments! 👇

Let’s flood this post with love for the best custodial team around!

With tons of Wildcat Pride!

Your Fort Payne Middle School Family 🏫✨

🏛️ The Legacy of Rome!

Mrs. Carroll and Mrs. Wise led our eight grade students through an exploration of the lasting impact of the Roman Empire through an engaging gallery walk! They discovered how inventions and innovations from more than 2,000 years ago are still used today—and how they have evolved over time.

What a great way to connect history to the world around us! 📚🌎

The school year is off to a wonderful start in our agriscience courses! Students have successfully passed their safety tests and put their skills to work by building a pen in the shop. As they began their FFA unit, all classes welcomed the 2026-2027 North District FFA Vice President as a guest speaker. Our seventh-grade students also learned about the meaning behind the FFA emblem and recreated it using edible ingredients. We are excited to see what else this year has in store for our agriscience students!
