5th Grade Rocks!!!
Welcome to Mrs. Fickenscher's Mound School, 5th Grade website. Our goal for the year continues to be to foster the amazing 5th grade Global Citizens using the lens of a scientist and the grit of a growth mindset! In our Ohana, we never give up, make our brains grow and always remember we are a family!
