You’ve walked the halls of Fuller with curiosity, kindness, and courage—and now, you’re ready for your next big adventure: middle school! We are so proud of everything you’ve accomplished and the leaders you’ve become. Though it’s hard to say goodbye, soar high, Class of 2025!

[Gerald Hernandez Jr. @GHernandezJr]

As we wrap up another incredible year, we’re reminded that it’s the relationships and connections that truly make a difference. Saying goodbye for the summer is always bittersweet-but it’s especially tough as we send our amazing 5th graders off to middle school. Soar high!

🌟 Big shoutout to Fuller’s amazing Child Nutrition Staff! 🌟
Our science teacher, Mr. Shore, has selected them as the winners of this year’s Best Science Project — and for good reason! 💚♻️
Their outstanding efforts in recycling and sustainability truly stood out. Way to go!

🎶 It was our last morning of Fuller Falcon Morning Jams — and it did not disappoint! 💃🕺
Some of our regular fans came out to show off their fancy footwork one last time, and the energy was through the roof! 💥

[Gerald Hernandez Jr. @GHernandezJr]

We’re so proud of our Fuller Falcons and all their hard work and growth this year. Keep soaring, Falcons! 🦅

[Gerald Hernandez Jr. @GHernandezJr]

So thankful for these amazing graduating seniors—our Fuller alumni—for coming back and showing our students a glimpse of the bright futures ahead. Your presence at our clapout meant so much and reminded everyone what’s possible with hard work and heart.

[Gerald Hernandez Jr. @GHernandezJr]

Look at these amazing Fuller alumni graduating with the Class of 2025! 🎓✨ Their journey began right here at Fuller, and now they’re ready to soar like true Falcons! 🦅💙
We couldn’t be prouder—once a Falcon, always a Falcon!

EOG testing days can bring a little stress, but at Fuller Magnet we start our mornings with encouragement, music, and some dancing to shake it off! I loved his moves — our Falcons are ready to soar! 🦅

Field Day 2 was a splash-tacular success!
Fourth and fifth graders had a blast today with relays, water games, and friendly Falcon competition. Huge shout-out to Mr. Maldonado and all our amazing volunteers who made the fun happen! Go Falcons!

I LOVE Field Day!
I don’t think the excitement for it ever fades—whether you're 5 or 55, there's just something magical about the games, the friendly competition, and the joy on every face!

Today, I had the honor of attending Guru Vandana, a beautiful Hindu celebration where teachers are recognized and appreciated. I was invited by two of our Fuller families and had the joy of watching my students perform—it was truly special and humbling.

[Gerald Hernandez Jr. @GHernandezJr]

One of my favorite things I look forward to as principal is celebrating our amazing Falcons who soar with the Fuller GIFTS—being Goal-oriented, Inclusive, Focused, Trustworthy, and Safe! They earn a visit to the principal’s office for the Treasure Box!

[Gerald Hernandez Jr. @GHernandezJr]

I enjoyed listening to the amazing Fuller Magnet Orchestra.

[Gerald Hernandez Jr. @GHernandezJr]

Great performance by the Fuller Magnet Band!

Second grade students are becoming economic thinkers. Today we looked at making a pencil holder for only $10. They had to decide what supplies they could use with the amount of money they had. @GHernandezJr @laura_thanos

NCDPI's Chief Academic Officer Dr. Stacey Wilson-Norman credits her 6th grade teacher, Mrs. Huband, for sparking her love of poetry—a passion she still treasures today. Thank you, NC teachers, for inspiring curiosity and making a lasting impact. We appreciate you! 🥰

[Gerald Hernandez Jr. @GHernandezJr]

I was surprised with a sweet treat from a Fuller Falcon today!
