Last week, Fairmont Jr/Sr High Student Council members attended the Timberwolves Leadership Event where they were able to listen to keynote speakers and learned about skills to drive them to achieve their dream job. The event took place at the Timberwolves/Lynx Practice gym. They later were able to attend the Timberwolves vs. Utah Jazz Basketball game at the Target Center.
One of the best parts of the evening was when sophomore, Sayra Lopez caught one of the tshirts that were thrown at the crowds. This was her first ever NBA game she has attended.
Help Feed the Fairmont Jr/Sr High School Teachers this Thursday March 26th during the evening Parent Teacher Conferences. They have a long day with class and conferences right after school so providing dinner for them is always appreciated!
