Personal Statement about FCC Experience:

“From the classroom to the long bus rides to volleyball and basketball games, I look back on my years at FCC with much fondness. FCC provided the perfect transition for me from high school. It was the combination of a challenging but also caring and encouraging atmosphere that motivated me to keep pursuing my goals in the classroom. On the volleyball and basketball courts, I was incredibly blessed to have some of the most respected and knowledgeable coaches in the area who were not only excellent teachers, but they made playing the sport so much fun, which inspired me to want to become the best athlete and student I could possibly be. I am thankful for how Coach Sholes, Coach Ray, Coach Mehl, and Coach Pansa have positively impacted my life. Each one of them have played a huge role in my achievements, and for that, I am grateful.”
