5th Quarter Coordinator
Formally known as the Casselton Community Healthy Youth Coordinator, the 5th Quarter Coordinator position was created officially and hired its first staff member for the start of the 2018 school year. The primary focus is to foster the relationship with the youth of Central Cass, plan, lead, and assess all activities, along with growing the 5th Quarter program. Housed in the High School Media Center, the 5th Quarter space is a place for students to find information, resources, snacks, and activities during their downtime.
​
The current coordinator, Lori Faleide, was hired in the Spring of 2020. She came with a background in Law Enforcement, Corporate Safety Executive, and Children's Ministry. She has a passion for working with children and youth to make a better community. Having lived in Casselton for the past 17 years with her husband Jason, four children, Abby 21, Sam 18, Emerson 15, and Sophie 11, and 2 dogs, she is very familiar with the area.
