About

The Falconer is the independent student-run newspaper of Fauquier High School. Classes are offered by FHS to expand one’s knowledge of journalism, but the publication itself remains independent. The goals of the publication are to inform and entertain the student body, interpret news, and provide a public forum for the exchange of ideas and opinions of students and faculty at FHS. In addition, this publication serves as a laboratory for students interested in learning sound journalistic techniques. Full editorial control lies in the hands of the students, and we have consistently established ourselves as a public forum open to controversial and unorthodox ideas that challenge the FHS administration. While The Falconer does take input from school leaders and advisors, the final editorial decisions have, for many years, solely lied with the student team of editors. The Falconer receives funding from a variety of sources, including from the school, advertisers, and donors, though who we receive funding from will never affect the content we produce.

We are committed to following all applicable copyright laws of the United States.
