Fairington Elementary

Dekalb County Schools

Greetings Fairington Family, 


The DeKalb County School District (DCSD) will begin phasing in the regular DCSD instructional schedule for all schools as listed in Infinite Campus. The transition to the regular DCSD schedule is to consistently allow for more instructional time for all students. All teachers and students will be expected to begin implementing the regular daily schedule. Classes will take place on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. All teachers and students will utilize Wednesday as an instructional support day to allow students to receive intervention, remediation, and/or acceleration individually or in smaller student-teacher group settings. 


Implementation Schedule

??All Schools: Begin implementation on January 19, 2021 continuing with Remote Learning.

Please remember that Wednesday, January 20th, is designated as a distance remote learning day.
