"The staff and families at Fillmore Middle School would like to publicly thank Moon Valley Nursery in Fillmore for generously providing beautiful trees and greenery for the FMS promotion ceremony on June 12th. FMS had 230 students participate in the ceremony and over 1000 guests attended the promotion celebration. We wish our promoting 8th graders good luck as they continue their education at Fillmore High School"
