Fairview Elementary Teachers! See the post below and share out your wish lists! We are only seeing one teacher from our school so far and would love to help support you!

UPDATE: Due to the overwhelming response, I've moved to a submission form to ensure no one gets left out.

Teachers who would like to add their wishlist after August 10th can submit here: https://forms.gle/rbuoKPAqxaFcARDD9
(Everyone who has already posted their list prior to August 10th - no need to resubmit. You're already on the list!)

🍎 ATTENTION TEACHERS & COMMUNITY MEMBERS! Let’s ! ✏️📚

Everyone's gearing up for back-to-school time, and our incredible local educators spend so much of their own money each year stocking classrooms with supplies, books, snacks, and flexible seating to make learning magical for our kids.

Now it’s our turn to show them some love and support! ❤️

🍎 TO OUR TEACHERS (Unit 5, District 87, & Surrounding Areas):

Drop the direct link to your Amazon, Target, Walmart, or classroom wish list in the comments below! Tell us what grade/subject you teach and your school name so our community can cheer you on!

🎁 TO OUR AMAZING COMMUNITY:

Scroll through the comments, grab an item or two off a teacher’s list, and help us clear as many lists as possible before the first bell rings! Even $5–$10 for pencils, disinfectant wipes, or dry-erase markers makes a huge difference.

Let's show our Central Illinois teachers how much we appreciate them! Please LIKE, COMMENT, & SHARE this post so more local educators can get their lists seen! 👇✨

Congratulations to our two Fairview PTO scholarship recipients this year, Ella Michalak and Jahariah Williams!!

Ella Michalak
“I will be attending the University of Iowa to study Pharmacy. I am graduating from Normal Community High School but my schooling experience started with Fairview. Fairview helped prepare me for my future through academics and personal growth. It gave me a strong foundation for learning while also shaping the values and the mindset I carry with me today.”

Jahariah Williams
“I plan on attending Monmouth College, majoring in Nursing and running on the Track team. Fairview has made a great impact on my life by teaching me the importance of being kind to everyone.”
