Welcome and thank you for visiting our website. 

Here at Fairfield Local Schools the staff, administration and the Board of Education have been laser focused on improving our academic programming. Our Path to Excellence plan spells out the goals for the district and drives our work to improve in the right direction. 

We are excited to note the following additions to our programming. We have added two full time teacher coaches to support our teachers in their personal improvement efforts. We have added two Reading Specialists to our elementary to support students who are not reading on grade level. We have added both a Social Worker and a full time School Psychologist to support students in need of mental health services and evaluations. 

In the classroom we are implementing both our new Math and English curriculum. We are a 1:1 Chromebook to student ratio district and we have wifi hotspots available for our students to check out as needed.  

Our newest program is our Robotics course. Our High school was first to offer robotics. To support the large number of students involved we have converted a previous computer lab into our new robotics laboratory. It is our ambition for the program to grow beyond robotics into a full fledged 7-12 STEAM program. 

Fairfield High School is pleased to start our first ever internship program. We have formed partnerships with local professionals and industry leaders to host our students in a career exploration program allowing them to work in their desired fields to determine if the field is right for them prior to leaving high school. These are just a few of the amazing new programs being offered at Fairfield Local Schools where it is always a Great Day to be a Lion!

As always my door, email and phone are always open to listen to any ideas, concerns or issues you may have.

Sincerely,

Tim Dettwiller
