Fairfield will be providing a sweet treat, and dessert, too! The Winter Spectacular performances are quickly approaching!
Fairfield Community Schools are on a two-hour delay for Tuesday, Jan. 9.
If there's a bright side, the days are slowly getting longer. We'll see you back in class tomorrow!
Typing a message that isn't real.
A turn of the calendar to 2024 has our Fairfield family wishing you the best in the new year!
From our Fairfield family to yours, Merry Christmas!
A note that we are taking a little break for the hustle as well!
Have a wonderful winter break! We will see you all in a couple weeks!
Winter is officially here, for those who celebrate the occasion!
The kids of New Paris Elementary had a special guest today for their early Christmas party! Mac made his appearance, no doubt looking for turkey and mashed potatoes but spent some quality time with the kids as they partied hearty in celebration of a great first semester of school.
The kids are building for the holiday, in a good, communal way!
Jeff McClure’s Building Trades class spent time this morning shopping for gifts to give local families in need. All of the purchases were brought back to Fairfield High School to be wrapped and then distributed to selected families who could use an extra hand with gift giving this holiday season.
Well done everyone, way to bring some holiday cheer to those who could use a boost.
As winter break approaches, winter sports are already in full swing! All three of our programs had home games this past week. See how they did with the weekly recap below:

DayInTheLife - Becoming A Bulldog
Fairfield High School senior Jenna Harlan wasn't quite prepared for one of the biggest moments of her life. Harlan was selected by the Community Foundation of Elkhart County as a 2023-24 Lilly Endowment Scholarship winner, which allows her a full ride to any college or university in the state of Indiana. Want to guess on where she really wants to go?
Read about the moments leading up to the announcement, and how the phone call went with mom in our story below. We will also post separate posts with videos capturing the moments.

The schedule keeps churning for our winter sports programs, and with it, some very positive results. How did our boys and girls basketball programs do this past weekend? How did our wrestlers fare at two quality invites? We even have some junior high bits mixed in!
Find the rundown here!
Included in the mix this week are also photos of middle school boys hoops between Millersburg and Fairfield provided by both Lily Thieszen and Wade Jagger, as well as team photos provided by Fairfield athletics. Thank you for the help!

DayInTheLife - The Grass Is Greener
Speaking of winning national awards, we've got another one for you all!
If you remember from earlier this fall, our groundskeeper - Dakota Steele - was among national contestants for Field Design of the Year - AND HE WON!
Steele won the Sports Field Managers Association's national contest, which sends him to Daytona Beach, Fla., in January for the national conference where he will be recognized. Since we all can't go to Florida in January, let's congratulate him now!
Full reaction from Steele and his huge accomplishment can be found here!
