Don't forget Kindergarten Round-up will take place Monday, 3/28, at Washington Elementary. Parking is available on the east side of the school or a gravel lot just south of the school (off E Street).
We are crossing our fingers but we think we have enough to reach our 50% goal of attendance for parent teacher conferences this week! Finalized numbers will come soon. We want to thank all the students and parents for coming out this week on their spring break!
Meet this week's Staff Shout Out.
Washington's very own Kylee Marlay!

How awesome is Matthew! Today he saw Mr. Klehm cutting down some small trees while riding his bike. Instead of driving by he stopped and offered his help. So proud on this young man and his thoughtfulness to serve others! Way to go, Matthew!
Special thank you to Empowered Nutrition for the tea drinks at professional development today! Always so yummy!
AMAZED! PROUD! 😁 Thank you to everyone who came out to conferences tonight! We are so excited for our students to be sharing their work with their parents and to be the leader in their learning! Way to go! 👏❤️
Happy spring break to all! Reminder no school this week. We will have Parent Teacher Conferences Monday and Tuesday evening if you signed up! Hope everyone is able to relax and enjoy their time off! See you soon!
We have the best students! 🤩 These students stayed after school today helping us clean and get organized for conferences next week. This is all while we got out of school early and it’s the start of their spring break. We truly are blessed! Thank you all for your servant leadership today! It was much appreciated. 👏❤️ #beyondblessed
THANK YOU to ALL who came out last night to support the Lions Club's Spaghetti Supper Fundraiser for our extracurricular programs! Event was so well attended we ran out of spaghetti. We will be sure to make more next year! Go Trojans! #OneFairfield #AwesomeCommunity
Our eighth graders are presenting their literary essays this week. I was so impressed to hear Xavier and Christian‘s work today. The teachers have been raving about how awesome their speeches, information, and speaking skills were in class today! So proud!
Check out this amazing artwork from several of our students at FMS! These pieces of art are beautiful and so colorful! Way to go, Lana, Addison, Chris, Dorian, and Driton!

We are hiring! We are looking for a full-time, day custodian at FMS. If you are interested please apply on our district website. If you have questions feel free to reach out to Matt Jones or Laura Atwood at 641–472–5019.
We would like to say a very special thank you to our Board of Directors and superintendent for giving all of our staff another bonus. Recently the Iowa Governor gave all Iowa teachers a bonus. While this is very generous, we were leaving out other critical staff that has made this year run smoother. So, this week our Board of Directors voted to give all staff bonuses because they value all staff and recognize their efforts. This is so generous and so awesome of our district! This is going above and beyond, and we are so grateful! ❤️
Reminder for FMS parents to sign up online for traditional conferences and student led presentations! Special thanks for Chase Countryman, PJ Bentley-Cross, and Henry Swan who have worked hard on this marketing post in our leadership team meetings!
Check out this spoon billed paddle fish Mr. Klehm brought in this week for students. Students were able to examine the fish and even look at its spinal cord! So neat! 🎣
FMS leadership team met today to continue to discuss ways to make FMS a better place for all. We focused on the end of the year activities, field trips, and how to make the environment look more attractive. These leaders have such great ideas and they do a fantastic job of collaborating. Love the time I get to spend with them! ❤️👏

Wow 🤩 These student conference presentations were amazing today as they started to practice and rehearse. Gives me chills hearing about the accomplishments and achievements by students this year. Student Led Conferences are right around the corner. We hope all parents can come join us next week on March 21 - 22 to hear their student share their portfolio. Students have been working during their classes as well as their Trojan time to prepare their celebrations, leadership roles, what they have learned in classes, and reflect on areas they need to grow in. We are excited as we start this journey of Student Led Conferences. To sign up for conferences go to our district website and click on the parent teacher conference tab. Hope to see you next week!
