Our Lost & Found is overflowing with jackets, hoodies, and other items waiting to be claimed! If your student is missing a jacket or hoodie, please have them check the Lost & Found located in the hallway.

To help lost items find their way home more easily, please label your child’s jackets, lunch boxes, water bottles, and other belongings with their name.

Fairmount Treat Policy

To honor students’ special days and support minimum disruptions to our learning environment we are implementing a new policy to provide clarity for bringing outside treats to school.

If you would like to bring a treat to celebrate your child’s birthday, please follow these expectations:

Item must be store bought and include label of ingredients and allergy information.
No hard candy is allowed due to choking hazard.
Items must be small or bite size. For example, cookies or bite-size cupcakes are appropriate. Cakes or numerous items would not be appropriate and will be sent home.
If your classroom is nut or peanut free, items must have clear labeling that they are nut or peanut free AND were made in a nut/peanut free facility.
Treats will be provided during lunch only. Please have items at school prior to your child’s scheduled lunch. If they arrive later, we will pass them out the next day.
No outside drinks.
No party items.

Thank you for your support and cooperation,

Shannon Koehnen
