Council members are selected based on their dedication to public service, their efforts in making a difference in their communities and their potential to expand their impact as national leaders for emergency preparedness. Students in grades eight through 11 are eligible to apply.

FHS, under the direction of the CTE department, will be hosting its 3rd annual Job Fair on February 13th from 10:00 AM - 11:45 AM in the Gymnasium. The purpose of this event is to provide an opportunity for students in grades 9-12 to learn about job opportunities in the community of Forks & surrounding areas, and to interview and apply for actual jobs and/or internships. More than 25 businesses have been invited to attend and we are hopeful that this event will strengthen the relationship between the high school and community members/businesses. Our community does a lot to support our school and hopefully the behaviors, attitudes, and demeanor of our students reflects their appreciation for that support.
If you have questions, please contact Ms. Castellano shelley.castellano@qvschools.org
