State Testing This Week at Fallon
Please remember that all students at Fallon will be taking their state English and mathematics exams (the SBAC tests) this coming week. Students will need earbuds or headphones for a portion of the test, so please allow them to bring those to school if they have an inexpensive set. Headphones will be provided for students who do not bring them from home, so please do not buy a set just for testing. Testing will occur at the beginning of each day, and parents can help ensure their children's success by making sure their children get a good night's rest and have a healthy breakfast before coming to school.

Fallon School Site Council
The Fallon School Site Council (SSC) is composed of faculty members, parents and community members working together to maintain the best educational environment for our students. With that goal in mind, we are asking interested parents to consider nominating themselves or another 2017-2018 Fallon parent. These members are part of the voting membership of the SSC and serve as the representative voice of all Fallon Middle School parents.
We have two open positions for the upcoming school year. Each position is for a two year term. SSC members will be elected by all attending parents in a general election held during our May 15th meeting at 3.30 pm. If elected, members are expected to attend our monthly meetings which are usually scheduled on the second Monday of the month from 3:30 pm to approximately 4:30 pm.
If you're interested in joining, please email with a short
