My name is Kurrai Thompson and I am the Principal at Fairview Elementary.  I attended Fairview as an elementary school student, and I consider it a privilege to serve the students, families, teachers, and the community.  I have been a dedicated educator in Roanoke City Public Schools since 1994.   

It is our goal at Fairview to implement the strategies in our division’s strategic plan, The Roadmap to Student Success.  We will develop the talents and abilities, a love of learning, and great character in students through effective, high-quality instruction that meets the needs of all our students in a safe, inclusive learning environment.  We will also involve our school community by revitalizing the Parent Teacher Association (PTA) and planning events to engage our students and families.  We understand that meeting our students’ social-emotional needs contributes to their success, so we have built time into our instructional day to be responsive to those needs.  

 The possibilities are endless for what we can achieve, and I look forward to working with you and your children.   

 Eagles SOAR!
