Deliveries to school:
Please put your child’s first and last name on deliveries – so many things come in each day that we are unable to remember all the names. We have student assistants to deliver lunches, clothing, school projects and other items during the school day and appreciate your help with this. Please be aware that we have no student assistants during 5th period, 1 pm – 2 pm, notes and other items coming to school during that time period are delivered during 6th period.

Lost and found:
Is your child missing coats, pants, shoes, socks, shirts, etc.? If so, please check the lost and found rack outside of the main office before noon on December 18 to claim lost items. Please come into the main office to claim keys, jewelry and other small items. All lost and found items are donated to charity twice each school year – at the beginning of Winter Break (December 18) and on the last day of school before Summer Break.

The National Geographic Bee will be held January 6, 2009 during first and second periods at Fairhaven Middle School!  Fairhaven students will participate in a preliminary classroom Geographic Bee before the school wide event. Our school winner for the past two years even earned his way to the Washington State Geographic Bee for both his 7th and 8th grade years at FMS! 

It is now time to dust off the old Atlas or simply use Google Earth to begin a little study time of your map skills.  Renew your interest in Civil War places, names of rivers all across the US or what crops are grown in the state of Kansas!   Watching Jeopardy each night also helps update your Geographic knowledge.  The web site to try a daily GeoBee question is: www.nationalgeographic.com/geobee/today

•   The FMS student newsletter will be starting again soon. Students are encouraged to participate as writers, reporters, artists, photographers, editors, production and more. Please contact Tova Saxe at 746-8103 for more information.

•   Calling all parents:  PTSA meetings are held the second Monday of every month at 7 PM.  We would love to have your input and ideas, to bring you up to date on what is being planned for the future.  All members are welcome!

•   Volunteers are needed for the Excess Funds Committee; please contact Kerri Sloan to volunteer.
