Did you know?

Our arts programs are thriving and we need more space to support them.

🎶 Band and choir programs are confined to the basement with no bathrooms.
🎶 Orchestra practices in the performing arts center, and students carry large instruments daily.
🎶 Our band programs are only able to effectively practice together
on the day of performances.

Good news for agricultural property owners! 🚜🌾

The Ag2School Tax Credit provides a 70% state-paid, dollar-for-dollar tax credit for all agricultural property (excluding the house, garage, and one acre around the homestead) on building bond referendums.

This means that if the referendum is approved, the Ag2School Tax Credit reduces the contribution percentage for agricultural landowners to 30%. The state's 70% tax credit will cover approximately 26% of the total bond referendum's principal and interest.

Visit FairmontBond.com/cost to learn more about the Ag2School Tax Credit and the cost of the proposed referendum.

Local Service Projects for Cardinals Give Back Day
Fairmont Jr./Sr. High School is seeking service project opportunities for our annual “Cardinals Give Back Day” on Friday, Oct. 24th (rain date: Oct. 31st).
This day is our way of showing gratitude for the support the Fairmont community consistently gives to our students and schools. On this day, students in grades 9–12 will step out of the classroom and into the community to serve others.
In past years, our students have assisted individual residents with projects such as yardwork, landscaping, window washing, gutter cleaning, and home organization. They have also partnered with local businesses and organizations by cleaning the downtown area and city parks, volunteering at nursing homes, helping the Humane Society, and supporting businesses with seasonal needs. Each project, big or small, is an opportunity for our students to give back to the community that so generously invests in them.
If you or a business you represent could use some extra help this fall, we invite you to submit a service project application. Google Form Applications are available on the school website at www.fairmont.k12.mn.us or on the district’s Facebook page. If you prefer a paper application, those can be picked up in the Fairmont Jr./Sr. High School office.
Applications are due Monday, Oct. 6th. For questions, please contact Principal Chad Brusky at cbrusky@fairmont.k12.mn.us or (507) 238-4411.
We are deeply thankful for the strong partnership between our school and community. Cardinals Give Back Day is not only a chance for students to serve—it is a reflection of what we can accomplish together when schools and communities work side by side.

Chad Brusky
Principal
Farimont Jr./Sr. High School
