PTSA Membership Drive
Our annual membership sign-up will begin on August 4th. Our dues and the capital campaign for donations is our largest fundraiser which allows us to have our programs for parents, teachers and students. Please sign up for the 2026-2027 school year. Parents $20, Teachers $15, Students $10. We appreciate everyone's support over the years and are excited to welcome our new members – parents, teachers, AND students!
PTSA Student Liaison Opportunity
Each year we look for 2-5 students from each class to serve as PTSA Student Liaisons. As a Liaison, these students are a voice for student concerns, needs, and suggestions to the PTSA and school administration. The main responsibility for this role is to be an active participant at PTSA meetings and share your opinions when asked. We encourage the Liaisons to participate in PTSA programs and activities, and even develop ideas for new programs or ideas for the school community as a team. If interested, have your student email Courtnie Ross at programs@fchsptsa.org.
SENIOR PORTRAITS
Attention: Parents/Guardians of Seniors (Class of 2027)
Legacy Studios will be at Falls Church High School on August 4 (Tuesday) through August 6 (Thursday) to take portraits of seniors. In the days ahead, Legacy Studios will begin sending emails to parents/guardians of seniors with information about how to schedule a senior portrait appointment. Please be on the lookout for the email coming from Legacy Studios no-reply@imagequix.com. (Tip: If you haven’t seen it by the middle of next week, please check your spam/junk mail folders.)
You may schedule your senior’s appointment now if you don’t want to wait for the email notification. You may do so now by going to Seniors.LegacyStudios.com or using the QR code on the attached documents.
Dates: August 4th – 6th (Tue-Thu)
Location: FCHS Lecture Hall
Times: 8:30 am – 3:00 pm
Do not worry if these dates and times are inconvenient due to scheduling conflicts. Legacy Studios will be returning to FCHS in October, November, and January for makeup senior portraits, so there will be ample opportunities to get your senior scheduled for their portrait.
