The seventh annual Guiteras Fall Fair brought hundreds of people to the school grounds Saturday afternoon. The annual celebration and fundraiser, organized by Parent Group President Lyndsey Ayers, helps raise a couple thousand dollars to support field trips and special programs for the students throughout the year, according to Principal Sonya Whipp.

“It’s not our biggest fundraiser of the year, but it’s one that brings a lot of the community together,” Ms. Whipp said. “It’s probably the best weather day we ever had. It was a lot of fun.”
