The Fair will be held in the FHUMHS Gymnasium. Each business will be provided with a 6ft table and 2 chairs, unfortunately there will not be electricity available. (*Please let us know if you have any placement requests; near a door, near a bathroom, against a wall, etc.)
We are excited to offer our students a chance to see what opportunities are available in our community and the surrounding areas.
If your company is interested in attending this year's Career Fair, please respond by March 31, 2023.
It is our goal to make this Career Fair even bigger and better than last year but we need your help to do it. We look forward to hearing from you!

From the State of Vermont Department of Public Safety and the Vermont State Police...
This morning, February 8th, we were under a Hold in Place (Secure the Building) at Fair Haven Union Middle/High School for approximately 15 minutes as a precautionary measure due to a concerning call made to the Fair Haven Police Department. Hoax calls like this have been coming into schools across the state and country recently. While there hasn’t been any credibility to these hoax calls, we wanted to make sure we were taking the proper precautions as student/staff safety is our number one priority. Again, there is no immediate threat to Fair Haven Union Middle/High School. Law enforcement led our response, and at this time we have released the Hold in Place.
Come Support our Talented Slaters!
This Wednesday, February 8th!
If you see any of these wonderful people, please thank them for their dedication in helping our students! Slate Valley is fortunate to have this dynamic team in our district!
#NationalSchoolCounselorAppreciationWeek February 6th - 10th
STAR360 assessments will start for middle school students tomorrow, February 7th. Research indicates that students perform best on these assessments when they get a good night's sleep, eat a healthy breakfast, and bring supplies they need. Please help your student be prepared so they can do their best.
This spring semester is THE BEST time for you to tackle taking the SAT or ACT college entrance exams. These scores are a common request in the college application process.
Below are listed the remaining test dates during this school year as well as the cost of each exam. (Note: VSAC and your School Counselors have information on FEE WAIVERS that could make the test FREE for eligible students so see us ASAP for more details!)
To get set up to take either test:
1) Visit the testing agency web site
2) Set up your Student Account on that site.
3) Search the Test Registration section of the testing site for your preferred Test Date. (YES, you can take the test more than once...and research says you probably should!)
4) Complete the Registration Process to secure your seat.
Your School Counselor can assist with ALL steps in this process -- OR you can do this on your own.
If you need Test Accommodations, please see your School Counselor NOW to start that additional process.
By the way, we also have great resources to help you study for these exams 8-)
REGISTER FOR THESE TESTS ASAP!!
Good Luck!
Ms. Ramey, Mr. Gale, and Ms. Cross-Baker
