Tamura Tigers Put Physics to the Test in Dynamic Energy Lab

Children engaged in arts and crafts activities at a classroom table.
Last week, 4th-grade students at Tamura Elementary took a hands-on approach to physical science, investigating the relationship between speed and energy. Through interactive experiments, the young scientists explored a fundamental concept: a faster-moving object carries more energy than the same object moving at a lower speed.

To test this principle in action, Tamura Tigers designed ramps of varying heights and launched test cars down the inclines. By observing and measuring how the cars' impacts varied depending on their speed and ramp height, students saw firsthand how potential energy converts into kinetic energy.

Fulton and Talbert Cheerleaders Take the Field with Edison High Chargers

Cheerleading squads in colorful uniforms posing together at sunset.
It was a true celebration of community spirit and school pride at Sheue Field as the Edison High School Cheer team hosted cheerleaders from Fulton Middle School and Talbert Middle School for a Friday Night Lights football game against the Palos Verdes Sea Kings.

The middle school cheerleaders joined the Chargers on the sidelines, getting a firsthand taste of high school game-day traditions, performing cheers, and energizing the crowd. This annual cross-campus collaboration offers younger students a exciting preview of high school athletics while strengthening connections across our school community.

Unlocking Creativity and Innovation: FVSD Celebrates Arts in Education Week

VAPA Team
From September 13 to 18, 2026, Fountain Valley School District is proudly joining schools nationwide to celebrate National Arts in Education Week, which is a dedicated time to recognize the transformative power of visual and performing arts in public education. Artistic expression is an essential component of a well-rounded education. Through music, visual art, theater, and movement, FVSD students develop critical thinking, self-confidence, collaboration, and creative problem-solving skills that serve them well beyond the classroom.

This dynamic learning experience is made possible by our extraordinary arts educators across the district. At the elementary level, our elementary music teachers and VAPA itinerant teachers introduce young learners to foundational rhythm, melody, movement, and visual arts. As students transition to middle school, their opportunities expand through dedicated band and orchestra directors who instill discipline and teamwork, middle school choir directors who guide vocalists in harmony, and middle school drama teachers who empower students to find their voice, build empathy, and shine on stage.

Strike Up the Band! Masuda Middle School Wins $10,000 Grant for Music Program

Philharmonic big check for Masuda Band and Orchestra
Music is ringing a little louder at Masuda Middle School thanks to a major grant award from the Philharmonic Society of Orange County.

Back in January, Masuda Band and Orchestra Director Mr. Rob Covacevich (affectionately known to students as Mr. C) submitted a proposal for the Philharmonic Society’s Strike Up the Band grant program. Designed to support and enhance K-12 school music programs across Orange County, the competitive grant program attracted 52 applications this cycle. Masuda’s submission stood out among the rest, landing one of just 13 coveted $10,000 grant awards.
