We are looking forward to welcoming you all back for the 2022-2023 Fairchild Challenge at the Elementary Launch Brunch on Saturday, September 10. Make sure you register if you have not already done so.
If you are an MDCPS teacher and wish to receive master plan points for participation in this year's Challenge you must register through your Frontline account. Remember, to receive credit you will need to attend the launch and sign the MPP roster, participate in at least one challenge and then attend the end-of-year Teacher Forum on May 6, 2023.
Finally, we are doing things a little differently this year. You will still need to register as a Fairchild Challenge teacher but we are no longer requiring a school registration form.
Thank you to everyone who offered feedback at last years Forum - we are looking forward to sharing the improvements to the Challenge inspired by your suggestions.
