From attending a very small middle school Fairview was a great experience into meeting more people and having more freedom and being in a large environment. In Fairview it's "cool" to be involved with the school through sports, student government, and other clubs. With over 2,000 other kids you get to meet brand new people every year and make friends, many of which I have still kept in contact with after graduation. Fairview students are energetic people with lots of school spirit and lot of motivation to excel. Fairview offers both IB and AP courses taught by teachers that are accommodating and can work with your to make time for extra help when you ask for it. Although they offer their best help, in Fairview you are treated as an adult and are responsible for yourself and your own work that will teach you independence, time management, and organization. Go Knights!
Fairview is great! It's very hard at times but I've learned a lot. Most of the teachers are really, really good and are approachable. Fairview has a lot of classes to choose from, including both AP and IB tracks, as well as College Prep classes. There is something for everyone to get involved. Fairview has great sports. Some are highly competitive and are cut sports, but some are no-cut, so everyone can do a sport if they want to.
I loved the academic drive that was present in the Fairview community. There were endless opportunities available to get involved with the school and community. The strong support from faculty and administration created the type of environment where success was not only possible, but achieved. Some things I think would improve the overall Fairview experience for future students would be implementing more programs for students to manage stress. I also believe that if here was more education regarding the party culture that is so popular in high school and how there are other ways to have fun.
