Fairview Alternative High School
October 26, 2023
As we begin our 2nd grading term, our enrollments are almost at capacity. We know that you have enrolled your student into a small high school for a reason, so please know that we will continue to keep our class sizes low and student support high.
In order to support our classrooms, we are asking that you have a conversation with your student about the following topics that keep coming up:
- FAHS has a created space called our Compass Room for students who need a quick break to refocus and get back to learning in the classroom. We've been noticing that students are hanging out in our 4 gender non-specific bathrooms that are single stalls as a way to avoid being in the classroom for many reasons. If your student is need of break from class, they should ask their teacher to see if the compass room is available for a short amount of time.
- Students who take phone calls from friends and family during the school day are missing out on important learning in the classroom. If you need to reach your student throughout the day, please send them a text or call our main office number and we'll get a message to them as soon as possible. That number is 651.604.3800.
- Vaping at school is illegal. If a vape is found on a student or a student is vaping on the school grounds or on field trip, consequences will be given which could be dismissal for the day or a suspension. We want students to be completely sober when they are at school so that they can meet their educational goal of graduation.
Did you know that FAHS is a Title 1 school?
This means that our school receives federal funding to offer extra support in literacy for our students. All families are welcome to read our plans and share any feedback with us!
Parent and Family Engagement Plan
Paper copies of the plan can be mailed home or electronic versions emailed to any family that requests.
Contact Maureen Kieger if you have any questions or want to share ideas for improvement: maureen.kieger@isd623.org.
FAHS School Pictures
All students at FAHS will have pictures taken on Monday, October 30th morning to update our student management system as well as to create student IDs for individuals who request them. If you would like a jpeg of your student's picture, please complete this form and a digital copy of the picture will be emailed to you. There is no charge for receiving the digital copy.
You will be able to send the picture to your favorite photo printer company (Shutterfly, Walgreens, Costco, Wal-Mart, etc.) to get copies of the picture in the sizes you want
