A Highly Individualized High School Experience
At Fairmont Preparatory Academy we’re redefining what a high school education can be. Founded in 1991, Fairmont Prep has grown to include AP and IB programs as well as an Advanced Math program, Medical Magnet and Engineering Magnet. These programs offer our students a highly individualized high school experience--delivering on our promise to prepare students for success in top colleges and challenge them to become exemplary citizens of a global society.
Here, extraordinary opportunities such as an integrated travel program, expansive extracurricular activities, arts and athletics are available in a close-knit, small school environment. Students are able to excel in academics, play multiple varsity sports, participate in clubs and ASB, even enroll concurrently in two specialized magnet programs. Our low student-to-faculty ratios mean that each child receives the attention he or she needs to flourish.
You will find some of Southern California’s finest teachers at Fairmont Prep. Many of our faculty hold advanced degrees and have real-world experience in their subject areas. They serve as mentors and trusted advisors for our students with whom they have a strong personal commitment.
Fairmont Prep attracts students from all over the world who want the best possible preparation for college. For this reason, we have a highly diverse student body. With so many students from a range of backgrounds and ethnicities, the Prep has developed a culture all its own where individual students feel at home and comfortable to just be themselves.
I am honored to lead the Prep and welcome you to learn more about how we are redefining high school.
