Bill Goodwin sponsors this website in memory of his mother, Helen M. Goodwin  

A dedicated educator at FSHS, the 1963 Maple Leaves indicates that the West Virginia Wesleyan graduate enjoyed dancing, swimming and canoeing.  She sponsored Junior Executives, cheerleaders, and majorettes that year.

Over her tenure of a decade, Mrs. Goodwin, the girls' physical education teacher, served as choreographer for the Polar Bear majorettes assisting Director Ron Wood, choreographed the Junior Carnivals and other special theatrical events, and advised Spirit Club, G.A.A, junior class, and cheerleaders.  Dear friends remember Helen M. Goodwin as a phenomenal lady and an extraordinary educator who championed the cause of equal opportunities for young women. 

Since she was much loved by all students, both boys and girls, her son's points of emphasis in supporting Fairmont Senior High School focused on areas that serve the entire student body as well as a facility that promotes wellness and sport such as East West Stadium and the adjoining pool.
