Fairfield Primary School

The current structure is a early 20th Century building with a center wooden stairway leading to many levels in the building. The center wooden stairway is the main egress route from the many levels of the building and has several patch work repairs. There are no fire escape ladders from any window above ground level. There are no "Ladder Trucks" currently employed at local Fire Department. This building is occupied by a majority of students under the age of 6. The local Fire Chief has stated directly to my husband, that he has not been invited to visit the building in more than 10 years as it is inspected by a State Official outside his Fire Department. There is no local "Official" fire plan for this building (with a majority of children under the age of 6) for an emergency above ground level, with the main egress route being a wooden stairway located in the center of the building, other than calling for support for a "Ladder Truck" from Fire Departments outside the community.

After several attempts to view the curriculum from K-12 communicating directly to the staff, administration, school board and the Department of Education Office in Augusta, one year later a curriculum was provided by the Superintendent for our review. The curriculum provided was incomplete and out dated. After becoming a School Board member 2014 both School Board Policies and Curriculum are now available online. There are 13 School Board members that make up the School Board yet three School Board members and the Superintendent meet each week and discuss business without involving the other members of the School Board and meet without public notice or agenda. The School Board has not followed Policy ADA which requires them to set annual goals in cooperation with the staff, administration and citizens of the community. Setting annual goals per policy ADA have not been complied with for many years. The School Board as a body has publicly stated they are not required to hear public comments or concerns. When suggesting to have goals established and a schedule set to meet those goals and review progress, the School Board refused to adopt this basic practice of success.
