Fun Run Updates

Thank You, Fairview Families!

What an incredible Fairview Fun Run we had last Friday! Thanks to the amazing support of our students, families, and staff, we not only reached our $30,000 goal, we exceeded it and raised an incredible $31,282!

We are so grateful to every family who donated, shared the fundraiser, encouraged their children, and helped make this event such a success. Seeing our Fairview community come together to support our students was truly special. Thank you for helping our Falcons soar! We could not have done it without you!
