The Spanish Honor Society at FHS has created around 75 Bilingual Kindness Rocks and set them out in different areas of the community. We received a mini grant from the FEF who funded this project! In connection with The Kindness Rocks Project, we would like to adhere to their motto that "One message at just the right moment can change someone's entire day, outlook, and life." Each rock is a small reminder that kindness is universal and that language can bring us together. We encourage anyone who finds one to please take a picture with it- post it on instagram: tag us: .Spanish.Honorssociety or . We would love to hear from you! People can keep the rock or put it out for someone else to discover! Some areas include (but are not limited to): Falmouth Bike Path, Thomas Landers Rd. Bog Restoration Area, Falmouth Library, Grasslands Harbor in Catumet, Chappy Beach, North Elementary School, Lazy Sundaes Ice Cream in Cataumet, and Beebe Woods.

Falmouth Public Schools Regal Seagulls Robotics Team Qualifies for 2026 World Championship

FALMOUTH, MA — April 2026 — Falmouth Public Schools is proud to announce that the Regal Seagulls robotics team has qualified for the 2026 World Championship robotics competition, to be held in Houston, Texas from April 29 through May 2.

In just its second year, the Regal Seagulls have quickly established themselves as a competitive force, ranking 15th among more than 200 teams across New England. Fewer than half of teams advance to District Championships, and only a small percentage earn a place at the World Championship level.

The team’s success reflects the dedication and perseverance of its students and mentors. Composed of fourteen students from Falmouth High School and Lawrence Junior High School, the team has committed countless hours to designing, building, and programming their robot while balancing rigorous academic schedules.

As the team prepares for the World Championship, an anonymous donor has established a matching grant to support their participation, which will match community contributions up to $10,000.

Community members interested in learning more about the Regal Seagulls robotics team and ways to support their efforts may visit the team’s webpage at https://fhs.falmouth.k12.ma.us/robotics or contact [email protected] for additional information.

The Regal Seagulls would like to gratefully thank their current sponsors including Falmouth Public Schools, Falmouth Education Foundation, the Gene Haas Foundation, The Falmouth Fund of the Cape Cod Foundation, Cape Cod Regional STEM Network, Falmouth Toyota, The MIT Club of Cape Cod, The Valle Group, and Richards Design Inc.
