Hello Fullerton Families!



We have an exciting week ahead!


First, I’d like to invite you to our Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for the brand-new pool. Join us this Monday, October 14th, at 4:30 PM. We hope to see you there!


It’s also a big week for FUHS athletics. Many of our Fall sports teams are competing for league titles or playoff spots. Let’s come together and cheer on the Tribe as they give it their all!


Looking ahead, Homecoming is just two weeks away. As part of our annual tradition, we’ll be honoring distinguished alumni during our Wall of Fame Ceremony.


This year, we are proud to recognize Jesus “Jesse” Ayala (Class of 1998) and the late William “Bill” Gienapp (Class of 1962) on Friday, October 25th, at 5:00 PM, just before the Homecoming football game. Their plaques, showcasing their portraits and names, will be proudly displayed in the front office.


Jesse Ayala, now a professor at CSU Long Beach, has built an impressive 20+ year career in journalism, earning 4 Emmy Awards and 7 Edward R. Murrow Awards, overcoming many challenges along the way. Bill Gienapp, a celebrated history professor at Harvard University, was renowned as one of the nation's foremost Civil War scholars. We invite you to attend and help us honor their legacies.


Looking forward to seeing you at these events!

Oak Commons

A $5,000 grant from the Barona Band of Mission Indians was presented to Kristen Cruz by Assemblymember Sharon Quirk-Silva. The grant will be used to help fund Oak Commons, our outdoor classroom project. Grant funds are available to one school in each State Senate District and Assemblymember Quirk-Silva wrote an endorsement letter to accompany our grant proposal. If you would like to contribute to the project as well, legacy bricks are available for purchase until October 15th. Profit from brick sales will be used to fund a paved walkway and courtyard.

Manufacturing Day at Fullerton College was last Friday. Students from our BEAST program were given a tour of the amazing Manufacturing Programs at Fullerton College: Fashion Design & Merchandising, Machine (industrial CNC rapid-prototyping equipment), Printing (color printing and silk-screening technology) & Welding Technologies. BEAST students were able to tour the labs and workspaces of each program and learn about the different courses and certifications offered by each. Students participated in some hands-on activities such as silk-screening and digital body scanning for fashion design. Students were given welding and CNC machining demonstrations by FC students.

Thank you for the opportunity, Fullerton College!
