Week of September 10, 2018

Each week through this year we will recognize several of our students through our "Warrior of the Week" award. Students receive this award for displaying effort that goes above-and-beyond our expectations - reflecting their drive to achieve personal and academic growth. This week's Warriors of the Week are:

6th - JR R. 

7th - Julia W.

8th - Drake S.

There will be an 8th parent meeting on September 12 at 6:30 p.m. in the cafeteria regarding the upcoming Washington, D.C. trip. More information about the trip can be found here. 

Please do not park directly in front of the Fairview Park Public Library when picking up your student in the afternoon. This prevents library patrons from being able to enter/exit.  Thank you. 

Join the Fairview Park MS / HS PTA Today! Our PTA is an active organization working to secure the best possible educational experience for our children. We look forward to your membership and support to help us accomplish things we have planned for this school year! You can join online HERE . Paper forms are available in the MS office.

8th Grade Science - We are working on how to conduct scientific investigations with an emphasis on Independent Variables, Dependent Variables, Control Groups, Experimental Groups, and Data Collection. This week we conducted an investigation on how we can make sand hydrophobic and what practical applications can this type of sand be used in. I am very proud of all the hard work the students put in to make this investigation a success. - Mr. Broschk

Macbooks have now been distributed to students.  Students will only receive a Macbook when all the information has been completed in Infosnap.  Technology fees will be applied in October, once all schedule changes have been made.
