Fairview School is recognized as
North Carolina Physical Education Demonstration Center
The Demonstration School program is sponsored by the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction and the President's Council on Fitness and Sports. Demonstration Schools serve as professional resources for teachers and administrators interested in curriculum integration, improving student fitness, and other innovative Physical Education practices. Demonstration Schools are selected for their instructional focus, quality of teaching, and administrative support. They reflect a school-wide atmosphere of high expectations throughout the entire curriculum.

Boy's are Champs

Girl's are Champs

Activities we have developed:

Rectangle Run
Carpet Capers
Poison War
Fitness Circuit
Attack and Rescue
Four Square Ga Ga
Heartbeat Trail

The mission of the PTA is 3-fold:

to support and speak on behalf of children and youth, in the community, and to governmental bodies and other organizations;
to assist parents in developing the skills they need to raise and protect their children;
and to encourage parent and public involvement in the schools.

Many of the programs which make Fairview School so special depend upon the support of the PTA. Even in a community such as ours, the schools need more funds and more people power to maintain - let alone expand - the programs that we all expect to be provided for our children. Because we would like to continue support for our current programs and to fund initiatives for innovative change at Fairview, we need your support.

Please consider this an invitation to become a member of Fairview PTA.

W i l d W a t c h
The Fairview Wildwatch Project began in the Summer of 1994. The purpose of the project has been and continues to be the utilization of the natural and manmade resources of the school campus to integrate learning experiences across the curriculum with an emphasis on environmental education. The Wildwatch area is in continuous use by Fairview's pre-K through eighth grade students who are involved in authentic hands-on activities. ( Published info on Wildwatch )

WildWatch Pictures


4th Grade Worm Housing.	This is a brush pile - the home of Mr. Hiss, our resident black snake.

Amphitheater where we sit, watch and write about nature.	We watch all sorts of critters around the pond.

	We hide behind the blind and watch birds eat seeds and fruit from plants we planted.

We put food in the middle of the sand and return the next day to see what type of animal tracks are in the sand.

We have more pictures coming in the future.
