Because it has been classified as a low-performing school district, Fallbrook Union High School District (FUHSD) has been given the opportunity to receive grant funding if they hire highly qualified teachers that meet the standard of a National Board Certified Teacher (NBCT). According to FUHSD Superintendent Dale Mitchell, it is unlikely that the district will be able to take advantage of the grants because there are currently no teachers on staff who meet the criteria and the likelihood of adding or replacing any teaching...
Rainbow and Fallbrook leaders are breathing easier due to a mining company’s decision to test whether its Rosemary’s Mountain operations expose area residents to dust, diesel fumes or other potential airborne hazards. “People don’t realize how significant it is that they are doing this,” Jim Oenning, a member of the Fallbrook Community Planning Group, said after a detailed presentation last week. The presentation at the Rancho Monserate Country Club attracted about 25 area residents as well as representatives of Granite C... Full story

FALLBROOK — On Saturday, December 6, residents of Rancho Monserate Country Club retirement community donned their Christmas costumes, decorated their golf carts and paraded through the streets of their lovely little community with music permeating the air from portable DVD players. The parade actually began in 1974 as a summer event, as Grace Russell and Lonnie Thomas, two of the original participants, recall. The Christmas theme began in 1986. This year’s chairperson, Bre...

Community Project Funding is vital to Fallbrook’s nonprofit organizations. The current system administered through our supervisor’s office has been fair, balanced and simple. Individual organizations make their case for financial support for community service programs which are then reviewed by our supervisor and his staff, who are personally acquainted with our local organizations, community leaders and community priorities. It is a direct, “hands-on,” well informed method of distributing funds with the goal of creatin... Full story

Our family recently stopped at the house on Reche Road that proudly displays Christmas lights for all of Fallbrook to see. While watching the 16-minute light show with music I had a chance to speak to the owner. Even with the economy in the state it is he and his wife decided that they should still provide Fallbrook with a little bit of the small town wonder. You can only imagine what their electrical bill is! Yet, they remain in the spirit of the season and bring smiles to people’s faces. If you have not had a chance to s... Full story
How do you think our “good neighbor,” Granite Construction, has chosen to celebrate the holiday season in Temecula? With all the families that are without homes, all the people without jobs, with all the “need” in the community this year in particular, where do you think Granite is celebrating? They are “schmoozing” their friends with a cocktail party in a posh restaurant at one of the well known wineries. I would think that their money could be better spent. With families going hungry, children without gifts under the t... Full story
The recession, the worst since WWII, is the direct and inevitable result of Trickle Down economic policies of so-called conservatives. They use public funds to provide private profits to large corporations and very few individuals. The combination of deregulation, non-regulation, buying influence in Washington to create special legislation, and old-fashioned greed now finally faces its predictable end – which the taxpayers will have to clean up. How bad is it? It’s very hard to tell. The new Robber Barons have fudged the sys...
For the past couple of months Sage Mountain Farm has been a vendor at the Bonsall Farmer’s Market in support of the Bonsall Education Foundation. We have watched the organizers work very hard to promote this new venue of fresh, local produce, foods, goods and services. We would like to urge the residents of Bonsall and Fallbrook to utilize this market and support the vendors with their patronage. Fresh local produce is becoming more and more an important issue. Food is a basic human need. Yet for most of us in the US, it is m... Full story
Saul Alinsky was the one who created socialist virus methods that most community-organizing networks use now. Saul died in 1972 and Hillary Clinton interviewed Alinsky and wrote her 80-page senior thesis on him. In 1971, Saul wrote Rules for Radicals and he stated: “The Prince was written by Machiavelli for the ‘Haves’ on how to hold power. Rules for Radicals is written for the ‘Have-Nots’ on how to take it away.” Alinsky believed that there were no fixed truths but that truth was relative and always changing, with “no final...

Community Web site has new features, building more. FALLBROOK — In order to serve residents and visitors, the Fallbrook/Bonsall Village News has re-launched its Fallbrook Insider and Community Web site, Fallbrook.org, after giving it a much-needed update and redesign.
