Look for the latest FHS Alumni issue of THE ADVOCATE in early November in the mail. We mail out over 5800 issues of this annual publication which is full of news that will be of high interest to all Fairhaven High School alumni. Enclosed will be a green envelope which can be used to send in a donation to our annual Light-a-Light fundraiser.
This is our ONLY annual fundraiser, and is used to fund all of our various projects throughout the year. If you don’t receive an issue of this newspaper in the mail, then we don’t have your address. If you wish to be included in our data base, please e-mail your address to Bob Foster:

On September 18, 2008 the FHS Alumni Board of Directors approved the expenditure of $11,000 to provide 28 computers for a state-of-the-art technology lab at the high school which can be utilized by classroom teachers who bring their classes to the lab to work on projects or conduct research for class assignments.
FHS Alumni President Bob Foster stated that the Board “was thrilled to be able to fund a project that would have such a direct impact on the teachers and students at Fairhaven High School.” He further stated that “even though we have funded several hundred thousand dollars worth of restoration projects over the past 28 years, this is the most significant project that we have funded that will have an immediate impact on the educational programs at Fairhaven High School.”
We’ve recently added a video that chronicles the original October 1990 raising of the “big flag” in front of FHS.
