Featured Partner: Fall Mountain Scholarship Fund, Inc

The Fall Mountain Scholarship Fund, Inc. is pleased to announce that it has entered into a strategic partnership agreement with the Fall Mountain Regional School District (SAU 60)!


Since 1968, the FMSF has awarded nearly three million dollars in scholarships to more than 2500 students! Every year students apply for FMSF scholarships via the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation Scholarship portal around the mid-April timeframe. For reference, this year’s scholarship applications are due by April 15 with selections made in May and award announcements in early June.


Together, we acknowledge and celebrate the incredible work of our guidance department here at Fall Mountain and highlight the invaluable role they have played in developing and strengthening our relationship with the Fall Mountain Scholarship Fund. Through their diligent efforts and collaborative approach, they have facilitated opportunities for our students to access vital resources and support to pursue their educational goals beyond high school. It's inspiring to see the positive impact that our guidance department has had on our students' lives and the broader community.


Donations to benefit Fall Mountain students can be sent to the FMSF, INC., P.O. Box 0116, Walpole, NH 03608. FMSF is a 501C3 non-profit and all donations are tax deductible.

Teen Mental Health Resources Survey

We want to share information about a quality improvement effort currently underway that is a collaboration between Dartmouth College, Dartmouth Health, and our local communities. As you are probably aware, there is currently a shortage of formal mental health resources which is driving a need to think creatively to better support teen wellbeing. As part of this effort, we are offering students the opportunity to share their perspectives on resources and supports for mental health.
