Fuquay-Varina Middle School, formally known as Fuquay Springs High School or “The Old Red Building”, was constructed around 1918 on the corner of Ennis and N Academy Street. Fuquay-Varina Middle School has ample amounts of History behind it’s construction. One interesting artifact that still resides inside of the since re-constructed Middle School is the School Bell that was used back when the school first opened.

Although still uncertain, these are the most up-to-date dates found for the School up until the new High School was built on Bengal Blvd.

Fuquay Springs High School 1918 (first graduating class 1922)
Fuquay-Varina High School 1967 (first graduating class)
Fuquay-Varina Junior High School 1975 (with move of high school grades 10-12 that year)
Fuquay-Varina Middle School 1977
Ninth grade left the campus for Bengal Blvd in 1977.

Falcon Park

FALCON PARK

Next up on our Parks & Rec Month highlights, one of Fuquay-Varina’s oldest parks, Falcon Park, sits on 5 acres of multi-purpose land. Back in the day, the population was little so there were no family gathering places which meant no place for kids to gather outside and play. Town residents took action in the 1950’s by organizing and raising enough money to fund the towns first park, Falcon Park, opening in 1953! Since opening, Falcon Park has received numerous updates including the most recent a few years back which gave much-needed new life to the playground and the buildings at Falcon Park.
