Our school has accepted the challenge of helping to find a cure for blood cancer! We are joining over 25,000 schools across the nation to make a difference and raise as much money
as we can! Through February 28, our school will be working to reach a goal of $6,000. A letter has been sent home that talks about Pennies for Patients and has instructions for setting up an online giving page. When you create your online fundraising page and start raising money online you become eligible to receive awesome Hero Gear! Check out our school page

Do you have broken/unwanted
crayons that you are planning to
throw away? Well, save them from
the landfill and donate to a good
cause! The PTA is collecting used
crayons and will be sending them to
Effortless Art, a company (started
by a Fairview grad!) that
makes adapted crayons for early
learners and special needs children.
If you would like to donate your broken/used crayons, you can drop
them in the box found in the Gilles Sweet office. We will be collecting
them through the remainder of the school year. Any questions, please
feel free to contact Karley Beaudry,
karleybeaudry86@gmail.com

Family and Community Engagement
|
As parents, we are always questioning ourselves about our parenting strategies or the development of our child. Over the next few weeks, I will be finding articles that I hope will answer those questions for you.
Remember, we are always trying our best as parents and yes your child is doing fine! PLEASE, if you would like more information in a certain area or have questions about parenting or child development, please email or call me. We can set up a time to go over your questions.
