Yesterday, the Fair Haven Union Middle and High School community came together to celebrate an extraordinary group of educators and staff members who are retiring or embarking on new adventures. With warm words, shared memories, and well-earned applause, we honored their years of service, dedication, and the countless lives they've touched. Whether stepping into retirement or pursuing a new path, their impact on our school and students is ever lasting. As they turn the page to the next chapter, we send them off with gratitude, love, and our very best wishes. Once a Slater, always a Slater.

Please join us in celebrating Lynn LaClair, one of our incredible District Proficiency-Based Learning Coaches, on her retirement! Lynn’s dedication to student-centered learning and her unwavering support for educators has made a lasting impact across our district. Wishing you all the best in this exciting new chapter—you will be truly missed!

On June 12th, Fair Haven Union High School proudly celebrated the induction of a new group of outstanding students into the National Honor Society (NHS). This prestigious honor recognizes students who exemplify the four pillars of NHS: scholarship, leadership, service, and character.

Your accomplishments are a true testament to your perseverance and excellence. Slater Nation is proud of you!

This morning, just before graduation practice, the Class of 2025 gathered for their Senior Clap-Out. Wearing their college, career, and military decision t-shirts, proudly displaying their decorated graduation caps, and led by their class advisors, our seniors exited the main doors of FHUHS for the last time. There, they were met with a tunnel of cheering faculty, staff, and fellow students, offering applause, high-fives, and heartfelt well-wishes for the journey ahead. It was a powerful sendoff filled with pride, excitement, and school spirit. Congratulations to our seniors!

Back in March, FHUHS senior Will Stewart began an ambitious mural project in Mrs. Adams's classroom. This week, he put the finishing touches on what can only be described as a powerful visual journey through American history — from the arrival of the Pilgrims to Reconstruction. This mural is more than just an art project; it’s a thoughtful gift from a talented student to a dedicated teacher. Will's work beautifully captures the spirit and content of Mrs. Adams’s curriculum — and will serve as an inspiration to future students for years to come. Thank you, Will, for leaving behind a piece of your legacy at FHUHS. You will be remembered.
