Fairfield Panther Paw

Winter has definitely arrived with the snow day this past Tuesday and the cold temperatures. I am happy to see so many kids wearing coats to school. If the weather is above 25 degrees including the wind chill factor, we will try to get outside. Being inside all day is no fun. We are looking forward to the winter break but we still have plenty of work to do at school. We are continuing to encourage ROAR model behavior from all students and we are giving out a lot of tickets to students who are showing empathy and compassion. We are doing a toiletry drive as our December community service project so please send in items is you are able. Have a great weekend and hopefully there is a big Buckeye win!

Celebrating Awesome

Our Santa Shop is next week! Students will be bringing home information and shopping envelopes to help them plan who they’d like to shop for. Please also see the shopping schedule below for your child’s shopping day.

To make checkout quick and easy, we encourage you to set up an eWallet for your child. This is the preferred payment method for the shop.

Set up your eWallet here: www.elfshelfwallet.com

Please note: No checks will be accepted. Cash and eWallets only.

We’d also love some helping hands!
If you’re available, please consider volunteering to help with the Santa Shop—even a short shift makes a big difference.

TIME TO CHECK LOST & FOUND!

(Fairfield Elementary – Winter Break Reminder)

Parents & Guardians,

Fairfield’s Lost & Found is overflowing with:

• Coats

• Sweaters

• Water bottles

• Lunchboxes & more!

Please take a moment to stop by and look for your child’s missing items.

All unclaimed items will be donated over Winter Break.

Thank you for helping us clear out the space and ensuring belongings make it home before the holidays!

We like to bring some fun to our learning in December. See the Cheermeister calendar for daily dress themes. As our community service project, we will be collecting toiletries, throughout the month, for those in need. Click on the link for what is needed.

On Thursday, December 11, the English Learner Department is hosting a Free Pickerington Tech Help Night at Tussing Elementary School (7117 Tussing Road) from 5:00–7:30 p.m.

If you’ve ever had questions about Infinite Campus, checking grades, the Petermann Bus App, filling out school forms, or navigating district tools, this is the perfect chance to get one-on-one support. Our team will be there to walk families through anything they need.

Language assistance will be available, and all families are welcome.
