This year we were able to continue the long standing tradition of offering the 8th grade a class trip to Washington DC. 123 students attended and we were able to get a group photo outside of the White House. What a trip! Plenty of memories, lots of sights too see, and more walking than the students were prepared for!
The students in Miss Stewart’s ELA class got together with their pen pals from Miss Glennon's class at FES. After getting to know each other through letters over the last few months, the classes met up for some fun-filled “Minute to Win It” challenges! Students worked together with their pen pals to complete 6 challenges!

In Mrs. Smith’s 6th grade ELA classroom, the students were reviewing grammar skills by playing a game called “Grammar Wars.” They compete against each other to find grammar mistakes. The students could earn prizes for their effort. All the students had fun, tried hard, and learned from each other in the process.
Parker Lord Engineers Jonathan Sacco and Casey Hedlund visited Mrs. Wethli's classroom to tell students about their jobs. Students learned about engineering and got to test out some of the different types of materials created at the facility.
This week the FMS students received a Thank You from Erie's Anna Shelter for their amazing fundraising efforts!
Students in Mrs. Mummert's 5th grade music class concluded their unit on Jazz Music last week by participating in group research on one of three Jazz Musicians; Louis Armstrong, George Gerswhin and Jon Batiste. After discovering important information about their artist, the students created a poster to share with the rest of the class and selected a song for the class to listen to.
Brothers, Gianni and Donnie Mastrostefano visited the School Board meeting to discuss the upcoming Walk for Autism and the importance of supporting Team Fairview. See the attached link for more details.
