GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Overall the experience of attending Fairfield High was not the worst choice there was. However I would say our chances of having an elite as well high education is very low. Although the overall looks of this school where bad it gave students a chance at life to strive for the unreachable as well reachable.
