Red Ribbon Spirit Week!

Our SMYL School Pals group has been busy at FES. Along with working on developmental assets, the students created and chose their group rules, name and mascot. This creative group of young gentlemen decided to call themselves the Fostoria Friends (F²), represented by a T-Rex wearing a SMYL Pals shirt, slam dunking a basketball. We can’t wait to see what else they come up with as they continue learning about themselves and developing new skills,









HUGE shout-out to our FJSHS math teacher, Mr. Foster, who placed 2nd overall at the Nationwide Children's Hospital Columbus Marathon last weekend! What an accomplishment, congratulations, Mr. Foster!!

Congratulations to FHS alum Micheaux Robinson on his induction to the Otterbein Athletics Hall of Fame last weekend!
A two-sport standout at Otterbein, Robinson earned All-American honors, was a two-time First Team All-OAC selection, and still ranks among the program’s best with a record-setting career. He was named MVP of the Aztec Bowl, was a part of the Otterbein national basketball championship team, and went on to play 17 seasons and have a record-breaking career in the Arena Football League. #RedandBlack #LeaveaLegacy

Good morning. Due to fog, FCS is closed today, Tuesday, October 14th.

Good morning. Fostoria City Schools is on a 2-hour delay today, Oct. 14th, due to fog.

The Fostoria High School Class of 1970 held its 55th reunion on Saturday, October 11th, at the Hilltop Club in Fostoria. With the theme of “Flower Power,” fifty classmates and spouses celebrated with music and video clips from the 1960s and '70s (orchestrated by DJ Jim Beeson), and lots of reminiscing with old friends. Earlier in the day, classmates enjoyed a guided tour by Leonard Skonecki at the Fostoria Historical Museum, where the class donated a check for $500 to help with museum renovations.

Congratulations to our 2025 Homecoming King and Queen, Ezra Sanchez and Averie Tiell!

Don't forget to join us tonight for the Homecoming Parade! Following the parade will be the crowning of this year's Homecoming King and Queen, and the Homecoming game vs. Rossford. We'll see you there!

As temperatures drop, please make sure your child comes to school dressed for the cooler weather — jackets, hats, and layers help keep everyone warm and healthy! Thank you for helping our students stay comfortable and ready to learn!


FJSHS Seniors and Captains of fall sports and marching band greeted FES students this morning as they arrived at school! It was a fun way to end the HOCO Spirit Week and get ready for this weekend's events!
