Fillmore Unified School District Superintendent and Rotarian Christine Schieferle announced that Fillmore High School has been named a 2024 California Distinguished School. Keith Derrick, FHS Principal, talked about what they have done to improve scores, classes and advancing validation for staff.
FHS has also partnered with CSU Channel Islands with a program that guarantees any student interested in attending will automatically be accepted.
Kristyn Bennett, a Special Projects Coordinator, is working on a Young Writers Workshop contest for grades 1st-12th. This is another opportunity to encourage students who are interested in writing stories, poems and art.
Congratulations Fillmore High School!
