Niche grades and rankings are calculated using dozens of public data sets and millions of reviews. Niche data scientists and user researchers rigorously analyze data and user opinions to assess the key aspects of K-12 Schools, Colleges, and Places to Live. Every month, millions of students and families use the Niche grades and report cards to find the right school or neighborhood.
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.

I am still a student at Fairfield but, I think that the education is at an acectpional rate. It's a great school system for a very small town.

Fairfield Area High School is a very small school. Although it is a bit drab in some areas, there are many fun things about it. I have always enjoyed the people I've met and the activities I have participated in. I truly have a lot of great memories here.

The teachers are very good and care about the students but the students don't have as much opportunity as going to a big school would give them.
