From Mrs Tennenbaum
We are settling in to the school year with our procedures, expectations and routines. Please continue to encourage your students to follow all of our ROAR expectations everywhere in the school. We want to make sure that we are creating an environment that is safe and conducive for learning. It takes all of us working together to achieve success. It was great to see so many family members attend our first PTO meeting this past Wednesday. I am looking forward to everything that the PTO is planning for our students and our staff. Have a great long weekend - no school on Monday for Labor Day!
We don't do Average, we do Awesome!
We are all in this together!

School Store Update
I want to personally thank all the families who have already participated in our SchoolStore program! We are on our way to reaching our goal, but we need everyone's help to make sure our teachers get the essential tools they need to help our students succeed.
Don't worry, if your family has not participated, there's still time!
This safe and easy program is 100% online so there is no face-to-face selling, collecting money, or delivering products. Your child will receive a prize just for participating, and more prizes will be awarded when goals are reached.
Thank you for all your support to our school and teachers.

PTO updates
Hello Fairfield Families,
We hope you had a wonderful summer! We’re so excited to kick off a brand-new school year full of learning, laughter, and community. The PTO is here to help make this year the best yet — and we can’t do it without you!
First PTO Meeting
When: Wednesday, August 27th
Time: 6:30 pm
Where: Fairfield Elementary Media Center
At this meeting, we’ll share our plans for the year, talk about upcoming events, and discuss how you can get involved. Whether you can volunteer for an event, help behind the scenes, or simply join the conversation, we’d love to have you there.
Your ideas, time, and enthusiasm are what make our school community so special. Let’s start the year off strong — please join us!
New this year: The PTO will be hosting a Book Club! Our first meeting will be on Tuesday, September 10th, and we’ll be reading The Inheritance Games by Jennifer Lynn Barnes. We hope you’ll join us for some fun discussion and community time. More details to come.
To help make school pickup smoother, safer, and more convenient, we are offering Carpool Pickup Tags this year. These tags will make it easier for staff to identify your car and ensure a faster dismissal process.
