From our family to yours, we wish you a Happy Thanksgiving!
Substitute teachers and educational assistants are vitally important to keeping the wheel moving at every school. Their patience, flexibility and overall care are facets that we not only appreciate, but celebrate.
Fairfield Community Schools has changed how we bring substitute workers into our corporation. Rather than using an outside firm to manage from afar, we decided to oversee substitute hires from within our own walls.
The process to become a substitute is simple, and still offers the flexibility to choose what days you work and where while getting paid at the same time! It’s a great means of income for retirees, part-time employees, college students on their breaks, or just someone who is interested in teaching but doesn’t have the education degree.
If you are interested in becoming a substitute for Fairfield Community Schools, visit our FCS Substitute page and sign up today. You do need to have a background check on file. If you have additional questions, please contact Wanda Miller at (574) 831-2188 ext. 8807.

New Paris Elementary first graders got a jump on their holiday feasts with a special Thanksgiving meal Tuesday afternoon. Turkey, mashed potatoes, all the fixings, desserts, it was all there, and the kids did their share of making a lot of it disappear!
Thank you to all of the parent volunteers for preparing the meal and serving it to our first graders!
Fairfield kicked off the unofficial start to its wrestling season Thursday night with program-wide Blue and Gold blacklight matches. The regular season for the program technically started last week with our girls competing at the East Noble Invite, and the JV will kick off tomorrow at West Noble. The varsity boys will compete Tuesday at Northridge in its first action of the season.
Happy National Substitute Teacher Appreciation Day!
There is no way the wheels keep moving at our schools without substitute teachers. From classroom help for a day, to maternity leaves, to cafeteria subs and everything in between. It all matters to have people at the ready to fill in and lead when the need arises.
On your national day of recognition, we thank you for the continued work you do to keep our schools moving smoothly!

This weekend we pause and pay respects to those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice, as well as those who are still in uniform serving our country. Fairfield Jr/Sr High School held its Veteran's Day program this morning, a moving and powerful tribute to both locals and countrymen. Among the ceremony was a touching tribute of the Missing Man Table, special reads from Fairfield High School students and staff, and a host of FHS graduates who joined the ceremony as special guests. Kudos to Ryan LeCount and Tracy Stanger for their work to put together a quality tribute.

The annual Blue & Gold Gala was center stage Saturday night in New Paris, and once again brought together the Fairfield community in support of its athletic programs. Keynote speaker Brodie Garber spoke, naturally, about the girls basketball run to a state championship, the first-ever team title for a Fairfield team, as well as how the basketball run galvanized a community support that couldn't be overlooked.
The Gala once again had several big ticket items up for grabs, including a unique pair of Nike shoes created from actual game-used Fairfield memorabilia.
Members of Fairfield's FFA program headed out to the Test Plot south of New Paris Elementary to take part in the harvest.

The annual Fairfield Community Schools staff costume contest didn't disappoint.
