Dear Fairview families,
We had a fantastic first week of Pre-K! Your children are doing a wonderful job adjusting to our routines and making new friends. Since we are waiting for Seesaw to be set up for our p.m. classes, we are sharing resources via text for now. Please take a look at the "Going to School" social story, which comes from the Pyramid Model.
Reading this short story together at home is a great way to help your child feel confident, excited, and prepared for another great week ahead. Here is the link

Sincerely, Darcy Dunn, Principal
Congratulations to our students of the week for the week ending on August 21! Students are recognized for being respectful, responsible and safe.
Dear Fairview Families,
What an incredible first week of school! Starting Pre-K is a major milestone, and our students handled it like absolute rockstars. Throughout the week, they built magnificent block towers, dove into vibrant art projects, made new friends during circle time, and proudly learned their new classroom routines. While a few morning drop-off tears are completely natural, they quickly gave way to giggles, discovery, and play.
Thank you for trusting us with your children. Our staff is dedicated to creating a safe, nurturing, and joyful environment where your little one(s) can grow and thrive every single day.

As we look back on 250 years of freedom, we are acutely aware that this milestone would not be possible without the profound sacrifices of the brave men and women who have defended our country.
To our local veterans, active-duty service members, and the military families within our own school community: Thank you for your service. Freedom is never free; it is earned and sustained by the dedication of those willing to stand in defense of our ideals.
Because of your courage, our students can walk into classrooms each day in safety, free to learn, question, dream, and grow. You embody the very best of the American spirit, selflessness, honor, and duty. Thank you.
