Reality Check for FHS Students
FHS students got a Reality Check this week! Students were given scenarios they may face after graduation. This included a specific career, salary, family, etc. They had to budget their salary to include rent, transportation, groceries, childcare, etc. The Reality Check program is sponsored by the Shoals Chamber of Commerce, the Lauderdale County Extension Office, and jumpstart.org.

The Florence girls tennis team came in 2nd place last week at the Muscle Shoals Tournament! Go Falcons!
