Message from the President

Hello FHS Community!!

I hope everyone’s year is off to a great start!  The PTSA is making plans for events and fundraisers for the year.  We will post any updates on our new website. Please check it out! FHS PTSA Website 

Just a reminder that memberships are for each school year.  We count on membership dues and donations to fund our annual budget, so if joining is the only way you can support then we appreciate it!  Joining the PTSA does NOT lock you in to anything, it means you will get an occasional email from me about events, fundraisers, and volunteer opportunities.  Right now we have a raffle going on, if you join by September 30th.  You can join by clicking here: Join PTSA.  Thank you to those who have already joined. 

One of these baskets can be yours, sign up today for the PTSA!!

SENIOR PARENTS!! I know that graduation seems a million years away- or maybe you wish it was, but it is time to start planning and fundraising for the All Night Grad party which will be held on Graduation night.  I plan to have another virtual session to discuss what the event is and share important information.  In the meantime, to be included in any informational emails please sign up here: All Night Grad Parent Interest

Our first meeting of the school year will be Tuesday, September 22, 2026 at 7pm (L106) in the Career Center.  We will also have a table at Back to School Night, so please stop by to say hi!.

Thank you,
