Fallon One Tribe Wednesday

This Wednesday all Fallon students will participate in our annual "One Tribe Wednesday " celebration. It is a day for us to bond as a school and have a unifying experience. Students will spend the entire day with their Period 1 teacher and participate in a variety of activities. Students can look forward to class bonding at a grade level rally, learning more about how to combat bullying and be an upstander, strengthening their growth mindset, getting their minder binder organized for the year, and much more! We value the community we have at Fallon and we are excited to start the year off with this awesome day! 


PFC Enrichment Programs

        Parents, we need YOU to help lead and run EXCITING enrichment programs for Fallon           Students! If   you are interested in volunteering as a coach in one of the 6 programs             below, or would love to start a new program that is not listed below, please email                 [email protected].  All enrichment programs are parent-led, so the more             parents who volunteer, the more students who can participate.

The Splash of Art after school enrichment program is looking for parents or High School volunteers (hours!) who can help with Art program held for middle school students. We need folks  to help distribute materials, take photos of classes and art work, pose, and provide  general support during the sessions. Volunteering artists are encouraged to lead a  session of their own but not necessary. This is a volunteer-led, after school class provided at the costs of materials only to Fallon students. See Jen Huber,  [email protected] for more information.
