 Aluminum Can Recycling |
Fairfield West families, students and friends have collected 280 pounds of aluminum cans by recycling in the bin located behind the school. It is so easy to recycle. Please make arrangements to collect cans and send with your child to school or drop off anytime in the designated bin behind the school. Please let grandparents and neighbors know that they can help too! Let's empty that bin one more time this school year!

Label Collection |
 |
Fairfield West families are invited to collect various labels to help raise money for school equipment. We currently collect Campbell's labels that are found on soup and 150 other products such as Prego sauce, Swanson broth, and Pepperidge Farms crackers. This year there are products that are worth 5 points each. These include 26 varieties of condensed soup in specially marked cans, all Campbell's microwave soups, Supper Bake Meal Kits, all V8 Splash Beverages, and all Pepperidge Farm goldfish crackers. We only need the UPC part not the whole front label. Visit www.labelsforeducation.com for details. We also save BoxTops for Education labels and our goal is to raise
$2, 000. One of the easiest ways to support this project is by going to www.boxtops4education.com where you'll learn all the ways you can help. These labels are located on many products such as Kleenes, Ziploc, Pillsbury cookies, General Mills and Betty Crocker items. Lastly, we also collect labels from Tyson products. Look for the 1, 2, 3 Support Your School label on a plastic bag or carton. Please cut and send in the label portion only. If you have questions about label collection you may contact, PTC member, Jenni Morris at 939-0356.

Student Absences |
A
new e-mail address has been established for attendance
purposes. Parents may now use the following address
to report student absences: westattendance@fairfieldcityschools.com If
received by 9:30 a.m. on the morning of the absence,
the e-mail notification will serve as both a call in
and a parent note. This email address is an option
we are providing for your convenience. Parents may
still choose to call in to report student absences
by 9:30 a.m. on the day of the absence and send a note
with the child when he/she returns. We need to receive
written notification of a child's absence within 3
days of the child's return to school in order for the
absence to be considered excused. Please continue to
ask for written verification of any doctor/dentist
visits, funerals, court dates, etc. and send them in
with your child on the day he/she returns to school.
Good attendance is critical for success in school.
If you
have any questions regarding our new e-mail notification
system, please call Cheryl Geisler at the school office,
868-3021.
