FISD Superintendent Joe Craig recognized Fairfield Junior High Counselor Steffanie Lane for receiving the “Stellar Counselor” award from Region 12 for the month of December.
Keith Whitaker spoke about his concerns regarding the design of the new high school. He expressed concerns about the amount of glass in the building, both on the exterior and potentially in the CTE classes, and potentially the general education classrooms. He noted that all the windows are currently covered at all campuses and asked if the windows were ballistic proof. He also spoke how students will be distracted by other students by having so much glass throughout the campus.
