Welcome

Welcome to the Fairfield School Space Coalition Blog! This site’s primary purpose is to provide a forum for ideas that will hopefully lead to permanent space solutions in Fairfield’s public school system. We believe that a well reasoned, long-term plan will serve the needs of our children and the community well into the future. We encourage you to participate in the dialog or just log on to stay informed. This site will only be valuable to everyone if comments are constructive and respectful.

Please watch our presentation!
