  MISSION STATEMENT
  The mission of Fairington Elementary in partnership with staff, parents and community is to provide educational experiences that will enable students to become college and career ready citizens able to compete in a global society.
  
  UNIQUE ASSETS
  Fairington placed Third in the 2004 Helen Ruffin Reading Bowl Competition.
  
  The Teacher-Student Mentoring Program, sponsored by the Counseling Department, matches students with staff members to encourage positive behavior and academic achievement. The students are identified by teachers and parents who believe they could benefit from additional support.
  
  The 25 Book Campaign facilitates the students' exposure to reading and vocabulary development by encouraging them to read 25 books during the course of the school year.
  
  Fairington is able to work with Kroger Supermarket as a Partner in Education. We are fortunate to have two "friends of Fairington" - Publix Supermarket and Wal-Mart Superstore - who have agreed to offer their time and talents where they are needed.

I am a Fairington Student and I am somebody.

Today, I will learn all that I can.

I will also follow my teacher’s plan.

My best I will do and remember to show

self - control and follow all classroom and school rules.

I will keep a positive attitude and ask for help when needed.

I am a Fairington Student and I will do my

BEST TO LEAD ALL OF THE REST!
