Fairfield Elementary School

Today, Ms. Duncan went from class to class with the WHEEL OF ATTENDANCE! She was celebrating the children that came to school every day this week! We realize people get sick and have to miss school for other events and usually celebrate good attendance, not perfect attendance.

There are many prizes on the wheel. For example, Owen won a gift card to McDonalds and Max won a photo of himself in the school announcements. Harley won an eraser and Daniel M. won a donated gift card from THE ICE CREAM Bar! If you would like to donate to our Attendance wheel, give us a call!

Being at school on time is important. Most classes start math or literacy at 8:55 sharp. If your child misses the beginning of the lesson, it is hard to catch up.

The good news is.... 146 students were at school every day this week with no lates! Bravo, Falcons!

Mark Your Calendar!

Our Grade 8 Graduation Ceremony will be on Tuesday, June 24 at 5:00. We can't wait to celebrate our fabulous Grade 8 graduates!
