Letter to FMS families from Fairbanks Principal, Mr. Kelly Hadden


Earlier this morning we became aware of an issue with cellphone users not being able to call our lines ending with the last four digits beginning with 72. This impacts the Metcalf Elementary School line (928-865-7290), Morenci Early Learning Center (928-865-7274), and the Cafeteria line (928-865-7219). Verizon and VTC have been looking into the issue. If you need to reach Metcalf Elementary School, Morenci Early Learning Center, or the Cafeteria please call our District office at (928) 865-2081. They will transfer you. We will put out an update as soon as we have more information. Thank you!

Again, thank you for your support as we work through this situation. - Jennifer Morales MUSD Superintendent

Good afternoon Wildcat Families,
As you know Morenci got hit hard by a rain storm on Sunday afternoon. Our buildings had extensive flooding and we are working hard to extract water from the carpets. The school year will start on Thursday, July 28th at the regular scheduled time. As opposed to Wednesday July 27th. We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused. We look forward to creating light up moments with your child this year and working with you as partners to help your child grow. Thank you for all your support and have a wonderful afternoon.
