Big things are happening in our youngest grades! Both Young School and Fairfield School are launching Best Buddies programs this month—bringing students together to build friendships, celebrate inclusion, and strengthen a sense of belonging across our school communities. Students and staff have been working behind the scenes to plan special kickoff events, led by Best Buddies teams in each building, and students will even be sporting their new Best Buddies Saco t-shirts to mark the occasion.
📅 Young School Kickoff: March 24
📅 Fairfield School Kickoff: March 25
We’re proud to see our PK–2 schools embracing the Best Buddies mission—helping students learn early that kindness, friendship, and inclusion make our schools stronger. 💫
