Coming into Fairmont highscool, I was very nervous, but as soon as I went in I made so many friendships that I had never expected to make and met amazing administrators and staff members that I would never forget about! They need to do better on the food tho!

Fairmont has amazing career tech programs. I am graduating from the Early Childhood Education CTC and am very pleased with what the program has taught me. I will be graduating high school in a comfortable spot to get my CDA along with working full time in a daycare. The CTC has provided me with opportunities to student teacher my junior year in a kindergarten class which paved the path for me wanting to be a prek-5 teacher.

This school district is amazing from the elementary schools right up to the high school. I love that the students are split up into wings to make the large school feel more intimate and less intimidating. Don't let the size of the school scare you, it truly doesn't feel as big as it is and the size...

Its only my second week of school and I am already being bullied and picked on by a teacher. Please get me out of here.

Disabled and mentally ill students aren't properly supported. Leadership is ridiculous and the principles are more concerned with their image than students safety.Teachers are very good with 'bad' ones being few and far between.The arts programs are fantastic.

No bullying policy, lots of kids get bullied and the school doesn't care. Math is very behind at this school, not preparing students for college-level math.
