Fessenden-Bowdon Public School and HWC Track and Field are starting a fundraising drive to replace our over 20-year old hurdles. The wear and tear of that many seasons has jeopardized the integrity of our hurdles, and it is time to update them.
By sponsoring one of these hurdles, you are helping to ensure that our track and field athletes have safe, high-quality equipment to use in both their training and in meets hosted here in Fessenden.
We routinely host 4-5 track meets per year, with some meets bringing around 400-500 participants. Many coaches, athletes, and fans have expressed high praise for our facilities and how our meets are run.
Please consider contributing to the continued success of Harvey-Wells County Track and Field by making a donation to replace our hurdles.
Cost per Hurdle: $250
Number of Hurdles needed per meet: 80
Please reach out to Mr. Aaron Loff, Activities Director, with any questions or to make a donation.
Thank You!
Wow! A huge thank you to Kyle Hart (FBS Class of 2011) for donating awesome local beef to our school lunches! We can’t wait to cook up some delicious meals with it. Thanks also to everyone that donated to processing costs and getting the beef ready. You’re the best!
In an effort to keep athletic events a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone involved, FBPS is modifying its attendance expectations.

IF THE WEATHER PREVENTS US FROM MEETING IN PERSON TOMORROW, we will hold a virtual learning day. Elementary Students will be sent home with packets of materials for your students to work on. 7-12 students will be provided materials digitally, through Google Classroom. All teachers will be available via email between the hours of 9:00 and 3:10 for assistance, if needed. 7-12 students were provided a schedule as a guideline for work completion.
Once again, a virtual day will be held in the event that we are unable to have school in person. That decision will be made later today or tomorrow morning.
