FHMS Flacon Volleyball and Flag Football teams opened their season Sept. 11 against Rancho Solano Greenway. Unfortunately, the Falcons lost on the court and on the field. However, Mr. Brennan and the Falcon Fans were especially impressed by the number of FHMS students participating in athletics this year. There were enough interested students to create teams and opportunities for sixth, seventh, and eighth graders.

“It’s awesome to see so many dedicated kids out there representing FHMS,” Mr. Brennan said.

Ms. Ludington and Ms. Wright are coaching the volleyball program. Mr. Keating and Mr. Spaeth are coaching our flag football players.

The next home game for the football teams will be Sept. 19 beginning at 2:30 against Tesseract. The volleyballers travel to Tesseract on this same day. Both teams are in action at home on Sept. 25 against Rancho Solano Gilbert and Missouri beginning at 3 PM. Come out and support our Falcons!

On Sept. 12, Mrs. Olson welcomed her daughter Megan to class. The younger Olson girl is studying to be a registered diatician, and she came to FHMS to present a lesson on the food pyramid. Students completed a food diary prior to Ms. Olson’s visit, and used it to discuss nutrition and the food pyramid. Mrs. Olson followed up with a writing activity.

Many classes are addressing the anniversary of Sept. 11, 2001, today. Some teachers are having the students write journal entries, some are reading articles, others are just discussing the event that changed our country seven years ago.

Mr. Brennan began the day by leading the pledge, and a moment of silence in honor of the nearly 3000 victims who lost their lives.
