Prop S is a commonly talked about subject within the school district, especially at North with the new building under construction. Prop S grants FHSD money to improve its buildings without taking money from residents. The Board of Education meetings have been a resource for the people of the district to learn the details of Prop S uses and building updates.

“We’ve met with the appropriate building leaders to gather input to ensure that the schematic design will support the instructional and operational needs at the building level, while also supporting the security enhancements that we seek,” director of Facilities Salum Stutzer said.

The district had been working on improving the safety security at the schools. FHN, both old and new, had some considerations taken about how to have the schools as protected as possible.

“The security vestibule [for the new FHN] is more of a multi-use instructional space,” Stutzer said.
