Fairfield Elementary School
Double Dutch Skipping at Recess!
Tentative School Organization for September 2023
This is what our school will look like in September if we keep our numbers as projected. As students move in/out over the summer our school enrolment will go up or down. We often have to reshuffle the school the 3rd week of September.
We do not tell students which class they are in until the first day of school because we often have to shuffle students on the Friday before Labour Day weekend.
