FALA Executive Director Community Interview and BBQ
This is the FALA community's opportunity to be involved in a community panel format interview with the top three executive director candidates for the permanent ED position at FALA. This will take place on FALA’s campus.

4 - 5pm - Community interview will take place in a panel format where the audience will have an opportunity to complete comments cards regarding the candidates. These will be shared with the Board of Directors and taken under consideration during the final selection process.

5 - 6pm - BBQ on campus directly afterwards where you'll have the chance to meet and speak with all three final candidates in a more informal setting.

Please RSVP so that we can ensure we have enough seating as well as food and refreshments.   Here is the BBQ Sign UP Genius Link this will help make this even more special!

This is an important part of the process and we encourage you to attend and participate. Looking forward to seeing you there.


FALA Finals
Spring Finals have been changed due to the change in schedule for the #RedforED Walk Out.  Please check teacher websites at our FALA Teacher Staff Web Page for class finals.  
CAMP FALA

We're excited to announce that FALA's first ever summer camp for kids is finally happening. For this first year, we decided to start small and test the waters a bit, so it will be for only two weeks in June.

Overall, it's geared towards 8-16 year olds and each camp indicates a recommended age group. We're offering ten different camps, mostly run by our own FALA teachers.

FALA Middle School English teacher, Ms. Andrea Garns will also be offering an English boot camp for  FALA students in 6-8th grades, who need some extra help this summer to be prepared for next school year.

Check out the website for all camp dates, descriptions and costs and to register your child.  Any questions, contact Andrea Garns at agarns@flagarts.com.

Tynkertopia FUNDrive Fundraiser
Dr. Christie, who provided a seminar on electronic portfolios and Google Sites at the start of the school year, has founded a non-profit called Tynkertopia.
Tynkertopia is a community center opening in Flagstaff in early July! It is a safe, welcoming and FREE space filled with opportunities to play, invent, build, explore and tinker!
Tynkertopia is designed for kids, parents, teachers to build STEM/ STEAM skills.
Dr. Christie hopes you will clean out your closets, garages, craft rooms, and workrooms and bring bags of “stuff” to FALA to help her collect interesting, recycled things kids and teachers can use at Tynkertopia. In addition, she is partnering with Savers and all items she can’t use at Tynkertopia will go to Savers.
So, pack up those old clothes, tools, games, puzzles, books, art supplies, outdated, broken electronics, and more - and bring them to FALA to the Art Patio to assist Dr. Christie and Tynkertopia. She will also gladly accept tables and chairs, exercise balls, or any furniture that kids will enjoy!
And be sure to visit Tynkertopia after the grand opening in July!
