Fairfield has been great for my daughter! The teachers truly care, the principal is wonderful, and she’s learning so much!

I would give this school a much higher rating than it shows. It deserves to be at least a 9. I’ve had three children attend this school and are all scoring very high on state testing. They were military friendly and helped my kids transition well in and out of the school. My kids all got into advanced classes after attending this school. I highly recommend this school and Fairfield neighborhood.

Our experience has been very extensive having children that are also gifted and had special needs. The way the administration, teachers and staff deal with any and all situations is how I would and hope to see all issues and communications would be.

Fairfield is a great school, the teachers and staff are very kind and welcoming. I haven't had any complaints since my daughter began attending in the middle of her 2nd grade year and she is in 4th grade now.

Fairfield teachers are outstanding! They always go above and beyond for their students! We have been blessed to have many teachers as our 3 children went through Fairfield. They all treated our children as their own. We love being a part of the Fairfield family!

Fairfield is a wonderful small school. The class sizes are small, the teachers are caring, and the administration is dedicated and thoughtful.

The teachers in this school are great; the principal and assistant principal are average. Both are new at their position and it shows. The PTA is good, but there is not enough leadership/follow-up and things were lacking this year. It is a small school and getting to know everyone is very easy, both teachers, assistants and children/parents.

I have a second grader and a kindergardener at Fairfield Elementary and I am very pleased about their individual progress. It is wonderful to see how they are learning and I know it is the teachers making the difference. School is organized, students are challenged, teachers are serious about their job.. you see the principal engaged, PTA almost over the top, which is not a bad thing. I feel my kids are in a great and safe environment to help them learn. Not in love of gifted services at the schooll, otherwise would rate excellent.
