In an effort to keep our students safe, secure, and dry, we are making a change to our AM car line procedures. Buses will now drop off students at the awning on 17th Street rather than Garland. Generally, buses will complete their drop-offs by 7:15 AM at the latest.
If you arrive during a time when a bus is unloading, please follow all traffic laws and do not pass a bus with its red flashers on.
Afternoon bus pickup will remain on Garland as usual.
Thank you for your cooperation in ensuring a safe and smooth arrival for all students!
Mr. McDonald
Don't forget, Movie Night is tonight around 6:00PM. It will be outside, so dress accordingly!
Our second Book Fair of the year starts this Friday and runs through Parent-Teacher Conferences next Thursday! It's a great chance to grow your child’s home library with exciting new books.
Your child will bring home a preview flyer this week, and you can use eWallet (linked below) to set a spending limit without sending cash! Any leftover balance stays for the next fair.
We can’t wait to see our students' excitement! 📖❤️

I just want to remind everyone that school starts back on Tuesday, January 7. Teachers will have professional development on Monday.
I also want to remind everyone that school starts at 7:45. We begin with small groups/personalized learning time right off the bat. So if your student is missing the first 10 or 15 minutes, they are missing valuable learning time.

Due to high likelihood of thunder storms, we are going to postpone our Movie Night scheduled for Friday, November 8. We will look at rescheduling before Christmas Break.
Here is some helpful information for all of our parents.

We are excited to announce that our Scholastic Book Fair will be taking place next week! If you have not already, you will soon be receiving a flyer. This is a wonderful opportunity for students, parents, and staff to explore a wide selection of books and educational materials.
Here are a few important details to keep in mind:
For Students:
-Students with money are welcome to shop any time EXCEPT during their grade levels WIN time. We want to ensure they have the flexibility to visit the Book Fair at times that fit their teachers schedules.
-Students who are shopping during other grade levels WIN time will need a pass. Since there will be a lot of movement in the hall during WIN time, we want to ensure we don't have students "shopping" without permission from their classroom teacher.
For Parents:
Parents are encouraged to come and shop with their children anytime during the school day or during parent-teacher conferences. Lunch time would be a great time to eat with your cuild and ahop at the Book Fair. We hope this will be a great way for families to participate and support our Book Fair.
4th grade conducted an experiment today to learn about “Energy Transfer” by placing hot water in cups made of different materials, and then soaking the same cup in cold water. Students had to take temperatures of the water, before and after the ice bath, to see which material transferred thermal energy (heat) the best! ☕️
Mrs. Reynold's 4th grade class studied reflections in nature. These watercolor landscapes are beautiful!

We had the BEST first week!! Our Fairview family is is excited about the new school year!
We look forward to seeing all of our families on Monday morning. Students needing to be dropped off can be dropped off on 17th Street where Mr. Horton and Ms. Brainerd will be waiting. Just a reminder, learning starts at 7:45. If your learner needs to eat breakfsst at school (which is free, by the way) please have them here by 7:20 to give them plenty of time to eat. Again, we look forward to seeing all the smiles (and maybe some tears from our kinder parents...dont worry, we will take great care of them). Thank you for trusting us with your most valuable asset!
