Fall River Elementary Newsletter


Hello Fall River Fox Families,

Holy cow!  We did it!  We met our goal of raising $50,000!

Talk about Courage & Character; our foxes showed so much heart today!

Together we were able to pull off one of the greatest Fox Trots ever.  Congratulations, everyone; we’ve earned the Ultimate Fox Party!

See you next Friday, September 27!

Onward and upward!


Vision/Hearing Screening

We will be having our Vision and Hearing screening at our school on Monday, September 23rd. Your child(ren) may be on the list to be screened. Please encourage them to bring/wear their glasses to school this day. If our screening indicates that your student needs further evaluation, you will be notified by mail. Please contact Stacie Miyake, Health Clerk, if you have questions or concerns.
