On August 30th, 2016, the annual Staff Welcome Back Breakfast was provided by PTSA. The staff was very excited and extremely grateful for the great spread and variety of food. All items were generously donated by the wonderful parents of FVHS. Also, we had lots of help from parents and students with set up, clean up and food runners. We would like to thank the many people involved for their help to make this breakfast such a successful event:
