• The Gayle Dill Book Worm Award is given to students who go above and beyond in the category of reading. Mrs. Dill was a longtime member of the staff here at Fairview Schools and we want to carry on her legacy of being life-long readers.  This was important to her and she instilled the love of reading to her students and her family.
• The World In Your Hands Award is presented to students who show their teachers that they have a bright future ahead of them.  This has been a long-standing tradition here at Fairview. It shows the recognition of students who are well-rounded and have a drive or passion to do something great with their lives.  We see their unlimited potential.
• The Archie Griffin Award is designed to promote sportsmanship, ethics and integrity both in the classroom and as an athlete.
