Welcome Back Fairmont Families!
I am thrilled to welcome all of our students and families to the upcoming 2025–2026 school year! Whether you are returning or joining us for the first time, I want you to know that Fairmont School is committed to creating a supportive, inclusive, and high-quality learning environment for every child.
As principal, I believe in the power of strong partnerships between home and school. My door is always open, and I encourage open communication, collaboration, and shared goals. Together, we can ensure that every student thrives—academically, socially, and emotionally.
This year, we are excited to continue building on initiatives that support the whole child. From academic excellence to social-emotional learning and wellness, our goal is to keep you informed and engaged in the programs and practices that help our students grow in every way.
Here’s to a fantastic school year filled with growth, connection, and success!
In Unity,
Elisabeth Patton
Principal
