A big THANK YOU to Ben of Brown's Shoe Fit of Fairfield for spending some time answering questions at our monthly Trojans Live event. He gave great insight to our students about managing a business, changing course in life, values and skills needed in the work force, and balancing work with family.
Great job to our hosts, Aron and Malachi, our security team, and our students for their thoughtful questions and respectful listening!
See you back next month for Trojans Live!

FHS will be on a special schedule on Friday, January 30, due to teachers attending a learning opportunity out of the district in the afternoon.
