Message from Mrs. Jones
Hello, Fallbrook Students & Families,
I am so excited to join our staff in welcoming all of our students back to campus on Monday, August 12th, as we launch the 2024-25 school year! I hope that you've had time this summer to rest and recharge with friends and family.
Students should be able to see Periods 1-5 classes in the student or parent portal; please check again on Monday morning as Warrior PRIDE Time course assignments are still being balanced (WPT is noted as "Period 9" on student schedules). For our returning students, most WPT assignments have not changed from last year, but we still recommend a last-minute check to make sure you know where you're headed on Monday morning!
Additionally, if you have not completed your student's Data Confirmation and did not attend registration, assistance will be available in the Parent Welcome Center (located across from Counseling) on Monday morning. Please be sure to complete this process prior to the start of the school year!

Counseling Corner
The Counseling Office would like to welcome you to the 2024-25 school year!
Counselor Caseloads for 2024-25
In an effort to balance caseloads and ensure equitable access to students' counselor, our counselor caseloads have shifted slightly. Moving forward this year, counselor assignments will be as follows:
A-C: Ms. Han (ahan@fuhsd.net)
D-Hen: Ms. Rios (erios@fuhsd.net)
Her-Me: Ms. Archuleta-Moya (carchuletamoya@fuhsd.net)
Mi-Roc: Ms. Vazquez (avazquez@fuhsd.net)
Rod-Z: Ms. Jimenez (cjimenez@fuhsd.net)
Scheduling Concerns
Counselors are actively addressing the limited number of scheduling issues that may still exist as of the first day of school. All students should follow their assigned schedule while they await an answer regarding a schedule change request. Students with double periods, or with a missing class, should visit the library during the doubled or missing period to address the issue with a counselor.
Schedule Change Policies:
- No Teacher Change Requests: We are unable to accommodate requests for changes based on teacher preference.
- No Trimester or Period Changes: We cannot make adjustments to specific periods or trimesters.
- Space Availability: Schedule changes are dependent on space availability in courses.
- Multiple Changes: Please note that requesting a change in one course may result in adjustments to other courses in your schedule.

Last Day to Submit a Schedule Change Request is August 23, 2024

New Bell Schedules for 2024-25
Attached below is the digital version of the bell schedule all students and families received in information packets during 2024 Registration.
This year's bell schedule will reflect the following changes:
1) An increased nutrition block for students on WPT Days.
2) An increased passing period between class periods not connected to a natural break (ie, nutrition and lunch) to prevent students from needing to arrive late to classes in the furthest parts of campus.
3) A slightly later end time of 3:33pm on WPT Days and 2:47pm on Early Release Days in order to allow for items one and two.
4) A reduction in the number of weekly schedules; students will now only have two different schedules per week - WPT Schedule and Early Release Schedule. Fridays will now also be a WPT Schedule, allowing for an additional opportunity for student support and/or extension.
5) A shift in where WPT is located during the school day; students will now attend Periods 1 and 2 prior to nutrition, followed by WPT.
Student Drop-Off & Pick-Up Map
As a reminder, staff begin transitioning to necessarily dismissal roles and locations during the last 25 minutes of the day, which means that they are not available to do early checkouts; parents wishing to check their students out early will need to arrange to complete that process prior to the final 25 minutes of the school day.
