CHOC Toy Ride
 On Friday, December 10, "Santa" stopped by the Prep with his "elves" in the form of 50 Harley Davidson riders from the Orange Coast Harley group. Judy Coderre, from Fairmont's business office, helped begin this holiday tradition 11 years ago. The riders picked up toy donations from Prep students and faculty that have been collected over the past few weeks. Toys collected from all Fairmont campuses will be given to patients at the Children's Hospital of Orange County (CHOC).

Fall Play - Barefoot in the Park
 The fall play, "Barefoot in the Park," was held December 2-4 and was a complete success! The hard work the students put into it (both actors and crew alike) really paid off and I am infinitely pleased with the result. Junior Eleni C., who played the role of Paul Bratter, is a phenomenal actor who had most of the audience on all three nights quite confused because of her excellent characterization.
CAST LIST:
Corie Bratter, Phorum S.
Telephone Repairwoman, Cynthia Z.
Paul Bratter, Eleni C.
Mrs. Banks, Nassim K.
Victor Velasco, Nicolas C.
