On March 8th and 9th Fabius-Pompey students entertained our community with three delightful performances of The Little Mermaid A hard-working team of 6-12 grade technical theatre students “made the magic happen” on stage, while our performers brought this beautiful fairy tale to life.

This remarkable team effort not only produced three wonderful shows, but also helped our students grow, learn, and have great fun working together.

Board of Education Member Retires:
It is with great appreciation for his service and deep regret that we accept the resignation of Don Neugebauer from the Board of Education. The loss of his institutional knowledge on board service and governance is vast. Don has been a member of the school board for over 23 years. During his tenure, Don served as board president for 17 years. In addition to being highly respected by the community, local board members, administrators, and staff at F-P, Don also earned the respect of many educational leaders across Central New York.
