The First Grade Students at Central, in their Knowledge Unit, have been studying Fables and Folktales from different countries. Several high school students from Ms. Davidson’s Honors One Class came to Central to read some of their favorite folktales and fables to the first graders. It was a great experience for all!
The Jeffs’ Best Award was created by the Fairbury Public Schools Board of Education to highlight and celebrate the great work of our staff.On behalf of the Board of Education, I would like to congratulate Heidi Miller, FHS Office Secretary, as the recipient of the October Jeffs’ Best Award this school year!
Here was the nomination statement:
“Heidi has been with the school for 13 years. She is really good with everyone that walks into the office at the high school. No matter how rough her day is she still has a smile on her face. It’s going to be hard to find someone like her and someone that loves the kids as much as she does. It’s going to be hard to see her leave in nov. I have seen Heidi cheer up so many kids in the past few months that I have been working for the school. Heidi is always there to help out anyone or she will be there to vent too. Good luck with everything Heidi.” She is a very deserving recipient!
The mission of the Nebraska Department of Education is to lead and support the preparation of all Nebraskans for learning, earning, and living. As Nebraska schools navigate the complicated transition into the fall, students must be connected, present, engaged, and supported across all learning modalities. Attendance was critical before COVID-19. Now attendance and access look different. The purpose of this document is to outline helpful resources and considerations for parents, families, and providers.
Preschoolers have been learning about themselves for the last 4 weeks. Our focus included body parts and the five sense. This is their favorite activity to practice body parts. Meet Mat Man!! They sing along and build him, one part at a time, making learning about body parts and five senses so much fun.

In Mrs. Stanton’s preschool classes, the students have been learning, playing, and creating with wood pieces. The wood pieces we work with are big lines, little lines, big curves, and little curves. Wood piece play takes children from the very beginning to teach everything they need for readiness to pre-writing. To children, it’s just play-but this is play that leads directly to school readiness skills.

On behalf of the Board of Education, I would like to congratulate Jane Rhine, FPS Food Service Supervisor, as the recipient of the first Jeffs’ Best Award this school year!
Some comments made about Jane were “She has a lot going on with changes in the cafeterias and trying to be 3 different people at once when an employee calls in.”
