33rd Annual State-wide Japanese Speech Contest Hosted at Fairfax
This year's state-wide Japanese Speech Contest is being held at our very own Betty Fairfax High School. The contest brings together students who are studying Japanese at all levels (middle school, high school and college) to demonstrate their Japanese language skills. Students from all over the state gather together with memorized speeches along a topic, present them to a panel of judges, and compete for prizes. This year's theme is Food. The Fairfax Japanese Program has 5 students competing and the contest is open to the public.
The Speech Contest is on Saturday, April 11th in the BFHS Performing Arts Center Stage from 9:00 AM to 3:30 PM. While the speeches are in Japanese, there will be an English display behind the contestants and an online program that you can follow along with. Please come and support our students. We hope to see you there!

Every Day Counts in PXU
Dear Fairfax Families,
As we enter into Winter break Friday, December 19th, we hope your family enjoys this time to rest, recharge, and spend time together. Breaks are important for balance and well-being, and we encourage all students to take this opportunity to return refreshed and ready to learn.
We also want to remind you how important it is for students to return on time after the break. Every absence ā whether before or after a recess/holiday ā adds up and can impact your studentās academic success, connection to school, and progress towards graduation. Consistent attendance builds strong habits that help students stay on track.
ā
Please schedule travel and appointments so your student is ready to be back in school on Monday, January 5th, 2026.
ā
Encourage your student to use this time to recharge and remind them that returning to school after the break means picking up right where they left off.
ā
If you family faces challenges that may impact attendance, please reach out to Maria Anaya (9th/11th/12+ Grades) and Yvette LeVelle (10th & 12th Grades), Student Liaisons. They are here to support you, connect you to resources, and help problem-solve any barriers.
Thank you for partnering with us to ensure your studentās success. We look forward to welcoming all of our students back right after Winter break, ready to learn and thrive!
Happy Holidays!!
