Mrs. Barbara Hall Fallon 1987
MRS. BARBARA HALL FALLON 1987 Before Barb Hall made a name for herself as an All-American on the NCAA Division II Bloomsburg Huskies’ powerhouse basketball team, she blistered competition throughout the Central Susquehanna Valley as a three-sport standout at Warrior Run. When you talk about some of the athletic greats that have come through the area, Barb’s name always comes up, whether you are discussing male or female athletics. Today, Barbara Hall Fallon becomes a member of the inaugural class of the Warrior Run School District Hall of Fame. A member of the Class of 1987, Barb earned local, regional and state recognition as a member of the Defender field hockey, basketball and track and field squads. It was on the hardwood, however, that Barb stood head and shoulders above the competition. At 6- feet, 2-inches, Barb utilized her size and skillful shooting and her touch with the pass to establish herself during her four years in Turbotville as one of the best to ever wear the Defender uniform. Barb shattered the girls all-time scoring mark and surpassed 1,000 career points during her senior campaign. Barb achieved the milestone with her fourth point at Warrior Run’s Middle School gym with 1:33 left in the first quarter of a game the Defenders eventually won over Shikellamy. “She’s been very instrumental to establishing our program,” said then-coach Bill Higgins, who earned his 199th career victory that night. “She’s a very unselfish girl. She’s usually the first girl at practice and the last to leave.” As a freshman, she made an immediate impact as a member of Higgins’ program, earning honorable mention West Branch All-Star status.

2017-2018 Annual Report
The Pennsylvania Basic Education/Higher Education Science and Technology Partnership 2017-2018 Annual Service Report Executive Summary The Science In Motion program sustained bipartisan support by members of the Pennsylvania General Assembly and was inserted back into the 2017-2018 state budget after deletion by the Governor. Science In Motion(SIM) was very eager to be able to provide hands-on, inquiry-based experiences to the participating schools in its role as the premier high school science education outreach program for the Commonwealth. Financial hardship of program funding over the past several years has forced many of the SIM host sites to reduce service area size, delay service to schools for several months, or completely stop service before the end of the school year. Of the sites that had science education specialists (mobile educators) from the ten-member colleges and universities, Science In Motion staff members presented over 1,590 hands-on laboratory experiences to 212 different schools. The program also provided an additional 6,206 drop-off laboratory kits for short term loan and offered 13 days of professional development workshop opportunities consortium-wide for over 55 teachers. Overall, Science In Motion provided 470 different teachers with 759 different labs creating 158,320 student experiences during the 2017-2018 school year. What is Science In Motion? Most Pennsylvania high schools cannot afford the modern, well-maintained equipment that it takes to prepare students for today’s modern technological careers in science, engineering and other technical fields. Modern scientific training is especially expensive as it requires multiple sets of equipment so that each student can get a hands-on, inquiry-based experience.
