Additional Details & Important Information
PTA General Association Meeting & Honorary Service Awards
These will both be held on April 7. April 7 will not be the PTA election. The election will occur on May 24. The nominating committee was unable to provide a slate 30 days prior to the April 7 meeting, which is a requirement based on our PTA bylaws. Therefore, we are not able to have our election at this meeting. The official meeting notice for the PTA General Association meeting stated that at this meeting we would announce the slate of 2022-2023 PTA board nominees with the election to be held at the following PTA General Association Meeting. This was also stated in the meeting notice for April 7 in the agenda. The election will occur on May 24 at 6:30 PM in the amphitheater (which is the next PTA General Association meeting).
Family Fun Multicultural Night: April 22 (5:30 - 7:30 PM)
Fairmont families have graciously volunteered to showcase their cultures and heritages at our Around the World at Fairmont event. This event will have booths that families can visit, learn, and even participate in some cultural activities (crafts, possibly learning a traditional dance), possibly seeing traditional attire from countries around the world. The event will be April 22 (5:30 - 7:30 PM) on Fairmont's upper playground by Main Gate. This is an event we are reintroducing to Fairmont. This used to be a big event at Fairmont and we hope it will be a great addition to the Fairmont's traditions. Please RSVP for a headcount on supplies. This event is free.
Family Fun May the Fourth Be With You: May 4 (6:00 - 7:00 PM)
Fairmont will once again host a May the Fourth event. We will be making lightsabers in celebration of Star Wars. This event will cost $10 per lightsaber kit. Students will be able to pick the color they would like for their lightsabers. Lightsabers will light up! This was a great event last year and we may even have a special guest join us for this event to help us assemble lightsaber kits!!!!! Purchase kits on FairmontElementary.org or using the paper form on PS. For more information, click here.
Book Fair
Book Fair is happening this week! Volunteers are still needed. Please consider signing up to help volunteer during lunch or recess at this link. Students will have a chance to shop during their library time (regardless of whether they have money), as well as their lunch and recess (only if they have money and we have enough volunteers) on Monday and Tuesday. If there is a shortage of volunteers, students visiting the Book Fair at lunch and recess will be limited based on the number of volunteers present. The Book Fair will also be open for family shopping on April 7 (7:30 - 8:30 PM).
Recycling Wednesdays
As a school, we have recycled more than 1,450 pounds of aluminum cans and plastic bottles. Thank you for your donations.
Don't forget to purchase your yearbook! They will be distributed the final week of school. Purchase online here.
