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.

My kids loved this school. I loved this school. My son's teacher was excellent, my daughters was disappointing, but the administrators, the parents, and the PTSA were all wonderful to work with.

I am not relating to many of the reviews below. I am over the moon with the support I have received as a new mom to elementary. It has a small town feel. They wholeheartedly care for the children! And the teachers...There is not enough comment space to express my gratitude to them!

We have 3 kids at Fairwood Elem and have been there for 5 years. Our kids love school and feel safe and at home there. The teachers care about the kids and work hard to make sure they are continually learning. There are many great school programs, and the PTSA is awesome and provides even more learn...
