Dear Fairmount Families:

Welcome to the 2022-2023 school year! Whether this is your first year as a Fairmount Firebird parent or you've been a member of this family for a while, we are glad you are here. Each new school year brings excitement and anticipation, along with the promise of learning and growth. Fairmount staff and PTA have been hard at work throughout the summer to prepare for this year and look forward to the many activities and programs we have planned.

Fairmount Elementary is an exceptional place—not just a school but a community. Everyone—from administrators, faculty & staff to parents, grandparents, volunteers, and students, all works together to ensure an enhanced, challenging, and rewarding academic experience for ALL students. Everywhere you turn, you will find people going out of their way to make our school a better place.

While there are always unknowns ahead, our children constantly look to us to guide them. Together, we can show them how a community works together to overcome obstacles—no matter how big or small.

As a parent, one of the best ways to become involved in Fairmount Elementary is through the PTA.

Fairmount’s PTA is not just a group or something that takes place “at” school. It’s not an invite-only club, nor is it just for “stay-at-home” parents. The PTA is a verb. We PTA for our children. We PTA to support our teachers and staff. We PTA to provide a wide variety of events, programs, and initiatives, in addition to enriching academic resources & experiences. Our PTA does amazing things, but we can’t do it without the support of our Fairmount families, and we need your support more than ever.

Fairmount Elementary is home to so many things—not just some of the top academics in the county but also to award-winning teaching staff, top-notch technology, and progressive programs designed to help our young learners grow to become top earners in adulthood.

We invite you to join us in supporting our children, teachers, and staff in continuing Fairmount Elementary’s tradition of excellence. Please consider joining the PTA to stay updated on news, opportunities for your student(s), and events; knowing your membership also helps fund our programs. We look forward to working with you!

Best wishes for a successful year,
