The American Falls Actors proudly present this year's musical, Big Fish. Show nights are November 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 7th. Doors open at 6:30, show begins at 7:00. Tickets are five dollars per person.
Based on the celebrated novel by Daniel Wallace and the acclaimed film directed by Tim Burton, BIG FISH tells the story of Edward Bloom, a traveling salesman who lives life to its fullest…and then some! Edward’s incredible, larger-than-life stories thrill everyone around him—most of all, his devoted wife Sandra. But their son Will, about to have a child of his own, is determined to find the truth behind his father’s epic tales. Overflowing with heart and humor, BIG FISH is an extraordinary musical that reminds us why we love going to the theatre—for an experience that’s richer, funnier and bigger than life itself.

HELP! - Hillcrest has a tricky problem. We have had a lot of bathroom accidents this year and the school is OUT of spare clothes for children. Many times the borrowed clothes we have sent kids home in do not make it back to the school.
If you have any children sized donations, we would gladly take them. We mostly need pants or sweats size 6 or 7 for kindergarten aged students.
Thank you for helping if you can!
Mark your calendar and plan for a fun night of hearing our award winning SOTF Band Program in their first concert of the school year!!!
The SOTF bands are super excited to announce their first concert of the school year and elementary costume contest.
Our Halloween Concert 2022 "Chased", will feature exciting and tantalizing performances from our 7-8th grade Concert Band under the direction of New Band Director Mr. Brian Leisher and the 9-12th Concert Band under the direction of Mr. Hanchey. Both groups have been working super hard this fall and have prepared spooky festive music from movies such as the Nightmare Before Christmas, Edward ScissorHands, Beetlejuice and Spiderman. Both bands will also be playing a programmatic piece (a song that tells a story) about a famous chase, with the 7/8th grade retelling in song form the famous scene of British Detective Sherlock Holmes being chased by the terrifying Hound of the Baskerville across the moors and the High School Band performing the famous German song Der Erlkonig (Elf King). Both pieces are sure to leave you on the edge of your seat.
At the concert we will have a costume contest for all children who are currently in K-5th grade. Costume contest participants are encouraged to be in the AFHS Commons to start registering by 6:30pm. All participants will receive a prize with the overall top 3 receiving the top prizes.

Time: 7pm, Contest Registration 6:30pm

Last week members of the SOTF High School Band were able to attend the first "Be A Music Major" day event held at Idaho State University. The band students learned so much about college and fantastic scholarship opportunities that await them. Besides getting to hear the world famous trumpeter Rex Richardson, who was fantastic, we were able to watch former SOTF Drum Major/AFHS alumni in concert!!! Way to go Danny!!! We are so proud of you continuing your playing at the college level!!!
Even though our math teachers are the best, they are always looking for ways to improve. Kathy Wagoner, Amber Andersen, Jason Libberton, and Becky Pulliam make up the math department at American Falls High School. They attended the annual conference of the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics for 3 days at the end of September. They attended classes taught by experts in the field of mathematics education and learned lots of information and gained new ideas!
"We are all excited for students and teachers to continue to improve at AFHS!"
