Volunteering at Fairview

At Fairview we have a number of opportunities to be involved. We need help that comes in a variety of ways beyond activities during the school day. We are also looking for help with items needed, companies to work with for discounts or donations, and individuals who can lend a hand with a special talent. Do you paint well? The school has an opportunity to paint pumpkins and improve our school with murals and more. There are multiple ways you can help and we look forward to talking with you.

If you would like to learn more about volunteer opportunities or want to help in the future, send us your information using this form or email us at volunteer@GEBAS.org. You will be added to our list of community members to reach out to when needs arise!

Check out this website for directions on level of volunteering and background checks, and for necessary steps for securing your background check and badge.

Fasching Committee Update

What is Fasching?

A carnival (think Mardi Gras)! In Germany, Fasching (winter carnival) begins on 11/11 and ends on Ash Wednesday, a 3 month long celebration!

A traditional German celebration, also known as Karneval or Fastnacht, it is a festival originated in the cities, most notably Mainz and Speyer. It was already established in Cologne by 1234.

The Fairview Fasching carnival is the school's largest Fundraising event and will be held on
