A new chapter of of technology education begins at Johanna Perrin Middle School as students take their first classes in the school’s new Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) wing! The new spaces are the culmination of years of design, collaboration and construction as part of the voter-approved Fairport Forward 2019 Capital Improvement Project. 

The STEM wing features three flexible classrooms with “garage door” separations that allow freedom of movement between classes and a central collaboration space. Mobile workstations, adjustable seating and in-room storage give students and staff an opportunity to use the classrooms as adaptable “maker spaces.” 

The classrooms are designed with ample room for traditional machining and woodworking equipment, and feature a state-of-the-art dust collection system.

Renowned Native American artist G. Peter Jemison paid a visit to Fairport High School’s Art and DREAM Clubs this week. Works by Mr. Jemison, a member of the Seneca Nation, are shown in galleries around the world. His art is strongly influenced by the concept of “orenda” – what his website defines as “the traditional Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) belief that every living thing and every part of creation contains a spiritual force.” His work in many mediums, including collage, paint, sculpture and video, have been included in solo exhibitions and gallery shows across the U.S. and Europe.

Mr. Jemison spoke to FHS students about functional vessels that have been used throughout history and culture to carry items – everything from baskets to pottery. Many of his most famous works follow this theme, and were created on brown paper bags. As part of his visit to FHS, Mr. Jemison worked with students to create their own works on paper bags.

Mr. Jemison’s visit was organized by the student officers of the FHS Art Club.

Dear Fairport community, 

You have a chance tomorrow, October 12, to cast your vote on the Fairport for the Future 2023 Capital Improvement Project! Please make your voice heard as we work together for a better, brighter future for our Fairport students. Polls are open from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. at Johanna Perrin Middle School.

REMEMBER – you will see two propositions on the ballot tomorrow: Proposition 1 and Proposition 2. You can find the full language of the two propositions linked here.

Proposition 1 –

– NO ADDITIONAL TAX IMPACT TO RESIDENTS WITH THE USE OF EXISTING CAPITAL BUILDING RESERVES

– Create modern, flexible learning environments at Fairport High School to comfortably absorb ninth grade and support the District’s comprehensive programming

Proposition 2 –

– TAX IMPACT OF $39 PER YEAR OVER 15 YEARS FOR A HOME VALUED AT $200,000 AFTER USE OF EXISTING CAPITAL RESERVES

– Update and modernize the FHS track and field to improve student athletic experience and create modern, safe facility for competition and community use

Voters have the choice to vote either “yes” or “no” on both Proposition 1 and Proposition 2. The enactment of Proposition 2 (track and field renovations) is dependent on the passage of Proposition 1 (updating Fairport High School). If Proposition 1 is not passed, Proposition 2 will not be enacted, regardless of whether it passed on its own or did not pass. 

Please visit our Capital Project website to learn more about the Fairport for the Future 2023 Capital Improvement Project, and I hope to see you at the polls!

Sincerely, 

Brett Provenzano

Superintendent of Schools
