Bring your whole family and your four-legged pals for a day of fun while raising funds for Dog-Harmony. All proceeds from Hops for Hounds will help support the pups and programs in our community. Dog Harmony’s services include Animal Assisted Therapy, Children’s Education and Community Education, and Keeping Dogs Out of Shelters. Last year, the dog therapy program touched the lives of over 200 people in local hospitals each week. Dog-Harmony also provided over 240 hours of education and training for families with pups who were at risk of owner surrender situations.
We hope you’ll join us and consider supporting this year to help us reach our fundraising goal. Sponsorship opportunities are available. To learn more about Dog-Harmony, visit dog-harmony.org or email hello@dog-harmony.org.

We invite all parents and students to attend our inaugural Open House on Thursday March 6 at 5 pm at FHS! All will receive a free fried fish dinner as well as an entry into a drawing for gift cards, gift baskets and more from local businesses!
This year’s open house will focus on boosting student attendance, promoting our CTE programs, enhancing student achievement, and increasing community involvement in our growing school.
A major highlight is our one-of-a-kind Aquadome Research and Training Facility- the only one on the Emerald Coast. The fish for our fish fry this year were raised and studied by our students. These fish not only serve as an educational tool but also fertilize plants in our agricultural program, part of our robust CTE offerings, which include culinary arts and more.
