Our Programs
Fairmeadow Elementary School
For the 2011-2012 school year, generous donations from parents and
community members have allowed PiE to provide $166,324 for use at Fairmeadow.
During this school year, these funds:
- Pay for more than two thirds of the general classroom aide time, so that all
classrooms receive multiple hours of vital classroom aide time weekly. Aides are an
important part of the classroom experience at Fairmeadow
- Fund a reading specialist, Katherine Scott, to support the literacy needs of
identified students
- Fund 100% of Spectra Art at Fairmeadow, so that all students receive art
instruction every other week, to foster creativity and confidence
- Pay for 100% of the science lab instructor, Kendra Hornbostel, giving all
students the opportunity to experience hands-on science experiments
- Support teachers in the classroom with a technology specialist who helps
all teachers better use the smart boards, iPods and our new iPad labs to interest
and engage all students at Fairmeadow.
"Without Partners in Education, we could not fund all the
wonderful enrichment staff and programs offered to our students across the entire
School District. As an experienced PAUSD principal, I can't thank you enough for
your ongoing generosity to PiE. It truly makes a difference to Fairmeadow and in all
of our schools."
- Fairmeadow Principal Gary Prehn
