ANG Meeting Reminder

Meeting Reminder

Wednesday, May 17th, in person- in the FHS Library is the last ANG parent meeting. We’d love you to join us to work out final details for your student’s celebration! 


FHS Prom Volunteers and Decorations Needed 

FHS Prom 2023

 

The 2023 FHS Masquerade Ball Prom will be held on May 20th at the State Theatre (220 N Washington St, Falls Church, VA) from 8pm to 12 am. Chaperones are needed to make this a safe and fun event! Please sign up to help! Chaperone Form 

In addition, the junior class hopes to turn State Theater into a magical place to have prom, but we need lights to help make this happen! Would any amazing people be willing to let us use white outdoor Christmas/holiday string lights for this evening? If so, please email jsweaver@fcps.edu before 5/18, so we can make arrangements. We will make sure to return them in pristine condition after prom is over. If you don’t need the lights returned and would prefer to donate them, just drop them in the school office and they will be stored at school for future classes and events. Thank you for your support!
