Fairfield Panther Paw

We are in the finally month of school. I know everyone is excited for summer break but we will uphold our high expectations for academics and for behavior. We have many fun things planned that we want all students to be able to enjoy but we have to meet the expectations to enjoy them. We want everyone to finish the year strong! OST Math tests are next week for our 3rd and 4th graders so please have them get a good night's sleep and a great breakfast.
