2024-25 Welcome Message From FPS Superintendent Michael J. Testani

Dear FPS Families,

Welcome back to a new and exciting 2024-25 school year! I hope you all had a restful and rejuvenating summer. The first day of school for Fairfield K-12 students is Tuesday, August 27. ECC students start on Tuesday, September 3. 

As we begin the school year, I am filled with immense pride and optimism for what we will accomplish. I look forward to seeing the halls once again filled with students, teachers, and staff, ready to embark on a journey of learning and growth.

This year holds tremendous promise and opportunities for all of us. Creating a safe and inclusive environment for all children remains one of our top priorities. Every student deserves to feel valued and respected, and we will work tirelessly to cultivate a culture of kindness and acceptance throughout our schools.

In addition, our dedicated and passionate staff will continue to strengthen and enhance the quality of education through robust curriculum, innovation, and technology, preparing students for a successful future in a global society.

Together, we can make this the best year yet for all Fairfield students by embracing challenges and opportunities with enthusiasm and determination.

Thank you for your trust and support as we continue to make Fairfield a place where excellence in education thrives.

Sincerely,

Michael J. Testani

FPS Superintendent of Schools
