Fisher Middle-High School is honored to have two working artists teaching in the Visual Arts program.  In high school, Vanessa Favaloro, a graphics artist, teaches  Talented Art I-IV, visual arts, and fine arts classes.  Students work with various media, including clay, charcoal, watercolors, paper mache, and oils.  Their two and three-dimensional art is displayed in front of the office, and at various art shows.

In middle school, there is a “pull out” program.  While students do not receive Carnegie units in middle school for art, they participate in area art shows, and receive intensive instruction in both two and three-dimensional art, such as paper mache, still life, charcoals, pastels, and clay.

The Fisher Middle-High School faculty, staff, and students are pleased to have Theater Teacher, Felix Favaloro on board!  Felix has been an integral part of Fisher’s staff for several years now, teaching both Talented Drama classes in High School, and Drama resource in Middle School.  Felix and his students have given us many wonderful moments, most recently, during the first semester Monologues and Drama Showcase, which featured several students in dramatic monologues, as well as an original student written, produced, and performed play.

PE uniforms can be purchased from the PE teachers during the beginning of each class period. The cost of the uniform is $10.00 for the shirt and $10.00 for the shorts.

Chloe Boudreaux, Sabrina Vegas, and Marlene Sisto matriculate along with our high school students, while Paige Falcon, Sabrina Vegas, Marlene Sisto, and Toni Ronquille help our middle schoolers “add” to their ever-increasing math skills.

Kaylyn Stravinsky and Emily Caulfield keep our high school students busy, both in the lab and through technical resources, as well as utilizing real-world activities and events.  In middle school, we have the effervescent Kelly Cook and Emily Caulfield, who guide our young scientists to decode the mysteries of science through fun, demanding hands-on activities.

Our high school social studies department is in the capable hands of Raymond Zoska and Marc Vedros.  These gentlemen know their history (and geography, and civics)!

The middle school is taught by Jessica Dick and Marc Vedros.

Bienvenido al Departamento de Español de Fisher!  Led by native speaker Josephine Carmadelle, our Spanish classes are muy bien!  Our students are in excellent hands, learning to conjugate verbs, comment in various social conversations, and read and write in the language that is the fastest growing second language throughout our country.
