Excavation of the gymnasium footings have been started and the block work will start soon. The road going from the school to first street
has begun, but progress is slow due to the weather. GMP#4 final bid packages, 90 in total, were opened this past week. These packages

eligible student from grades 7-12 to help pay for overload classes, dual credit classes, credit bearing exams, technical exams and post-

earned 2,200 credits toward their college degrees. Many universities are in cooperation with this program. Thirty-two credits are being
offered at FITC. Classes will be held online and during the summer. New science classes will be available soon. The ultimate goal of this
program is to offer enough credits for a high school student to earn an Associate's Degree in general studies by the time they graduate
from high school. This program helps build confidence in all students, not just high achievers. Students Marcie Cromwell and Bailey
Andrus shared their experience with the Advance Opportunities program. They both find it worth their effort to earn college credit while in
