Due to schools being closed, our Trivia night has been cancelled for this Friday, but will be rescheduled. Date to be announced soon.
From the Fallston High School Counseling Department:
Over the next few weeks Ms. Grupp will be meeting with each class to go over how to register for classes.
We need parents to review schedules with their student, sign the form that you saw the form, and we ask that you please make a copy or take a picture of the form so you have a copy for your records.
If you have any questions, you may reach out to your student's future Counselor, via email.
If you would like to submit a change in course(s), we ask that you email the counselor the course you would like to change by April 1st.
For information about courses: Please see detailed course descriptions in the Student Educational Planning Guide https://www.hcps.org/sepg/
You can select FAHS to see all courses that are available.

Unfortunately, due to the Verizon outage, our guest speaker is unable to present this evening as planned.

We will reschedule and share the new date once we have it.
Thank you!
Also, please note the reminder sent about the FHS information night next Tuesday. Reminder to all 8th grade families. Make sure yo attend!
Join us for an informative PTA meeting on January 14 beginning at 7 PM featuring Meggin Reeder from Northwestern Mutual, who will be sharing practical insight into 529 college savings plans. She’ll break down how 529s work, the benefits they offer, and what options exist if you haven’t started saving yet. The discussion will also cover why it’s not too late to begin and how families can take advantage of these plans at different stages. This is a great opportunity to get clear, straightforward answers to common questions many parents have about planning for future education costs.
Also, wear your FMS colors this upcoming Monday for our first seasonal opener Basketball games.
