SAVE THE DATE – Fall Band Review is Oct. 22
Our largest fundraiser of the year is the Fall Band Review which benefits the entire FHS Music Program.

It’s a fun day that requires participation from all of the FHS instrumental band students and parent. So mark our calendars and look out for the Sign-up Genius for volunteer shifts coming out next week. |
