We started at second grade and moved from a private school and we just love his school. I have no regrets nor would I send mine back to private. This has been the best. It challenges your child and each and very person is so nice and know u and ur child by name. Has a lot of offer your children and more. this is my fav magnet school and I would recommend it to anyone!!

Fairfield is an awesome school. My granddaughter is in the second grade and has been there since Kindergarten. She has not had one teacher that has not been a wonderful,caring.and fantastic teacher. From the cross guard to the principal there is not enough space here to tell how much they care about the children of Fairfield.. Mrs. Blue and Mrs. Graham know all the children by name and take a special interest in each child. Everyone works together for the welfare of the children at Fairfield. We are so blessed to have the best guality of teachers at our school combined with the leadership of our principal and coordinator and parental involvement. How can we not not succeed with such a driving force as we have at Fairfield Elementary Magnet.

My child went to this school 3 years; not happy with school or PTA. I volunteered to be on PTA but was not contacted for what I could contribute. The school's extracurricular activities are not advertised/visible- only cheerleading for girls, football for boys -not of interest to all people. When inquired other activities no avail. This is not good to newcomers in locating venues, shared experiences and camaraderie. In the yearbook and on the school walls, you will see pics of PTA childrens success in all different fields. The yearbook is full of pics of PTA children, large visible pics of them. Each year we have to look hard to find a few small pics included of our child. Parents may "buy" a highly priced "ad" to ensure a picture. Printing t-shirts, yearbook and student directory all contribute to PTA children fame or parent PTA companies. No real parent involvement encouraged. PTA events always include "spring fling/sweetheart dance" and swimming parties which do not consider other culture/religion values. Conclusion: The PTA's work is self-fulfilling, not community-serving. No support/encouragement of newcomer or other-culture. School does nothing to correct this.

Outstanding school. Fairfield has exceeded my expectations as a parent. I wish Fairfield was a K-12 school, so my children would never have to leave.

Fairfield Elem Magnet is a wonderful school for many reasons. The faculty, students and parents become "family".You will never walk in the school and not know someone in the hallway by first name basis. Everyone at FEM is an important person treated with respect from the cross guard to the principal.We are all there for the same reason: to get our children a great education in a great school with great people. Its hard to find all in one place. But you will @ FEM. The PTA is OUTSTANDING! Everyone works together as a team to accomplish tasks & goals. Parents and teachers really go the extra mile to help make FEM a WONDERFFUL place to be!!!
