Thank you!

As many of you may already know, the 2023-2024 school year was the final year for Fairmont's Chinese program. While this outcome was not the one all of us had hoped for, the additional year allowed us to say our proper goodbyes to the program and provided many students the opportunity to further their education in Chinese.

With that, this page has served its purpose in allowing the program to continue for an additional year. Thank you to everyone who supported us along the way!

Thank you to all the students and parents who came to speak and support the students for the Chinese program at the board meeting on the 21. It was very heartwarming and appreciated by all of us to hear the amount of support we had for our cause.

Though the board has not made a final verdict, it is clear to see the impact made by us taking the courage to speak and to stand with Ms. Ding and the need for a Chinese program at Fairmont. We'd also like to thank the parents that personally approached us asking if it was too late to sign our petitions and showing their support for us personally.

Again, we appreciate all of the help given by students and families.

On Wednesday, March 8, it was announced to all Fairmont Chinese students that the Chinese program would be discontinued this following school year. Students currently in the program will be forced to stop taking the language at Fairmont and find alternate routes of learning. Not only will we lose access to our education, but we will be losing what is, in our opinion, one of the best teachers at Fairmont. The Chinese program has done so much for us and losing it now would leave us all heartbroken.

If you'd like to help us keep our program and our teacher, you can attend the Kettering Board of Education meeting on Tuesday, March 21 at 6:00 p.m. in the Fairmont Recital Hall. Your support would be greatly appreciated and would help amplify our voices in this terrible situation
