FHC Calendar

Hello Falcon Families,
We have come to the end of another great year at FHC. As we begin to make plans
for summer, let’s not forget about becoming more involved in PTA next year! Many
of our 5th grade parents are moving on to Middle School and there will be plenty
opportunities for you to participate in the events and activities the PTA supports at
FHC.
The nominations are in for those wishing to serve on next year’s executive
committee however there are many events throughout the school year such as Bike
and Safety Fair, Falcon Festival, Field Day, Grounds Beautification to mention a few.
We need parents to step up and not only lead these critical events but be an active
participant in the planning and running of these events. With our school population
at over 1000 students, in order for these events to continue, we are going to need you
to be a part of these teams to ensure our students continue to enjoy the best we as
their PTA has to offer.
Congratulations to Volunteer of the month:

We raised more than $2,650 from Box Tops & Tyson Project A+ Labels this year. Help
us reach our goal of $5,000 raised by bringing in your Box Tops & Tyson Project A+
Labels by May 23rd.
We received 20 new Scholastic Books from the Book Bonanza Bonus Offer that we
donated to our Media Center from redeeming 3K Labels for Education UPCs and
banked 11,305 L4E (Labels for Education) points by pasting those 3,000 UPCs to Bonus
Collection Sheets. These points will be redeemed for school equipment that support our
Specials. Keep bringing in your Labels for Education UPCs to help us mail in another

Remember our last mailing for Box Tops & L4E is May 23rd so please turn in all your
Box Tops & Labels by then. Box Tops & Labels in any amount count toward monthly
incentives, but only bags of exactly 50 trimmed & unexpired Box Tops with "50" written
on the bag will also count as an entry for the iPod Shuffle drawing during the May Box

As the school year comes to a close, are you like me and the many parents out there, looking around the
area for activities to keep our kids busy during the summer months? Whether it’s day camps at various
child care centers in our immediate vicinity to sports, art, music programs — it’s all about the interests of
your children and the choices are limitless. It was so much fun seeing so many programs available in the
Tampa area that I wanted to share it with you too. (Disclaimer: This is an editorial piece, the author is not
