Learning doesn’t stop when the bell rings. Our Faculty came together after school to deepen their practice around SEL: the foundation of great teaching.
Grateful to Ms. Gabelman & Mrs. Spinelle for leading the learning and continuing to move Fischer forward!

Proud of our Fischer educators for leaning into a culture of continuous improvement. From differentiated literacy and IRLA/ENIL to Fundations data planning and Wit & Wisdom productive struggle, our teachers invest in their craft to better serve every child at Conrad Fischer.

It was a pleasure to serve as the MC for tonight’s Science Olympiad!

[Fischer Elementary School @FischerD205]

From engineering a pasta bridge to learning from a real pilot, our Fischer scientists had so much fun engaging in different challenges tonight during Science Olympiad! Thank you to the PTA and the dozens of parent volunteers who made this possible.

Yesterday’s LWSRA PE Take Over Day was amazing. Every class experienced wheelchair basketball, visually impaired goal ball, and sit volleyball, and the joy on our students’ faces was truly heartwarming. #WeAreD205 #WeAreFischerD205

At the PTA organized Book Nook, students engaged in story telling and crafts while enjoying a snack.
Thank you PTA for your labor of love!

Powerful Late Arrival morning at Fischer!
Coach Vargas led us through a celebration of student learning as teachers shared artifacts, reflected on surprises, and discussed the intentional moves that sparked growth.
Collaboration, joy, and professional learning at its best.

A true story of MTSS in action: layers of support leading to student success. Small groups, targeted instruction, and collaboration in motion. Thank you Mrs Meza Pérez and Ms Potchen!

You don’t have to be the most gifted.
Be the most committed.
Consistent effort, positive energy, and a willingness to serve the team — that’s what turns good into great.

All of these notes from 5th grade students and their teacher was the highlight of my day. Their words of kindness and appreciation truly filled my heart. It’s a reminder of how the tiny efforts we put in each day to make sure students feel seen and valued do not go unnoticed. 💙

[Fischer Elementary School @FischerD205]

Mrs. Martinez’s 5th graders read about How to Fill a Bucket and then shared appreciation notes with AP Zapata and me: it truly made our day! From “you always say hi to me” to “I can’t believe you help over 500 people and manage it,” their words filled our buckets. 🪣
