Fairwood Elementary School Reviews

“I've been very pleased with Fairwood Elementary. The parental involvement truly makes a difference here! My son has really enjoyed his experience at the school, and we are both pleased with programs that are available to students (such as foreign language, science enrichment after school, math games club before school, choir, orchestra, drama, etc, etc). This school has a very mixed socio-economic base and diverse student body, but it is cemented by its excellent teachers, superb parental involvement, and numerous opportunities for students to grow and excell. I should also mention that Fairwood Greens (the surrounding subdivision) is a great neighborhood to buy into...it has a very neighborhoody feel...good social interaction, strong HOA, and homes are a steal right now (and no I'm not a realtor).”

“I had no idea what a fantastic school this would be when we chose it! The parent involvement makes this school unbelievable. All of the teachers have been great that I have worked with. The PTSA provide a fantastic art program along w/so many more activities & fundraisers to bring bigger and better things to the school. The music program is one of a kind and there is a fun and rewarding focus on reading for all the kids. This is a community, not just a school. There are programs to help give low income children the same opprotunities that the other students have including a computer donation program to refurbish computers to give to low-income families. I am so happy with this school, the staff and the support system it has in place, I can't imagine finding a school better than Fairwood!”
