SWEATER WEATHER!


Dear Fairhill Families,

We hope you had a wonderful weekend and enjoyed the time with your children!

Yesterday, our staff spent the morning together focusing on our second core value — Rigorous Instruction. Our professional learning centered on reviewing student data by name and by need, and identifying specific enrichment and intervention paths to support every learner.

We’re looking forward to another great week with our students! As a reminder, there will be no school on Monday, October 20th, in observance of Diwali.

Warmly,

Ted & Maura
