Fairfield High School students, we are looking for three more high school girls to fill our cheerleading team. We
also have room for more male yell leaders. If you are
interested in trying out, please email at Coach McCurry at hmccurry@usd310.org. There will be virtual tryouts beginning the week of July 20th.
Please complete this brief survey to provide important information for our district as we prepare to return to school.

The Kansas State Department of Education will release its guidelines to the public this Thursday, July 16th at 12:30. A Fairfield committee composed of teachers, parents, Board of Education members, community members, and staff will be watching Dr. Watson’s zoom session together. Then afterwards we will start refining and editing our existing plan to match the KSDE recommendations. As soon as our plan is available, I will share it with you electronically. The KSDE document is 1078 pages, but we will do our best to follow each recommendation. It’s our goal to do everything we can to keep children as safe
as possible. Your Board of Education is committed to this goal and spent considerable time last night discussing aspects of our reopening plan. Please know that we are doing everything we can in an uncertain time. There will also be a parent survey posted soon so you can share how you feel at this point. Thanks for your support and patience in a difficult time.
Betsy McKinney, USD #310 Superintendent
