Our principal and staff
Our school team is committed to every student’s learning, wellbeing and sense of belonging. We work together to create a supportive and inclusive school where every child is set up for success.
Welcome from our principal
Welcome to James Fallon High School, proudly located on Wiradjuri land. We respect Elders past, present and future, and value the support of our diverse community.
Since 2014, I’ve had the privilege of leading our inclusive school, which reflects the richness of Albury. We are southern NSW’s only Big Picture school, with students embracing innovative pathways and unique opportunities, including a partnership with La Trobe University.
We offer eight support classes, an intensive English program, and strong wellbeing support. With Clontarf and Stars Foundations, we empower Aboriginal learners.
Guided by our motto ‘Together We Succeed’, every student is known and supported.
Mrs. Jennifer Parrett, Principal of James Fallon High School
