Happy Friday the 13th Slater Families!
Congratulations to our FHU Music Program for their amazing performance Thursday evening! They are such a talented group that have shown tremendous growth over the past several years!
For our Class of 2025 families, please check out the new scholarship form for the Thomas E. LaPlaca Scholarship linked below. This is a great opportunity for our FHU students interested in exploring education or athletic career fields in college. Please keep an eye out for the Fran LaPlaca Scholarship form that will be shared in next week's newsletter.
We would like to extend our immense gratitude to the LaPlaca family for their decades of continued support to all of our FHU students!
Have a great weekend!
