PTSA Meeting, March 19, 7pm, Career Center

Please join us Tuesday March 19 @7pm in the FHS College and Career Center for our monthly PTSA meeting.  We’ll start with a presentation from Ms. Kim on the Career Center, its resources and her role as our College and Career Center Specialist.  Stay for updates about what is happening around the school. All parents are invited!


PTSA Nominating Committee

We are looking to create a nominating committee of three who will work together during the months of March and April to nominate eligible volunteers for the 2024-2025 PTSA Executive Board. Our goal is to have the board reflect the diversity of our school community and classrooms. We will have a list of potential openings soon and we need a nominating committee to pull it all together. If you can help please contact Maria Array at  president@fairfaxptsa.org.
