Welcome 8th grade
Fairmont Families!
At both Fairmont Preparatory Academy and Fairmont San Juan Capistrano, there is something for each of you. Fairmont prides itself on a rich and high-quality high school experience: we balance academic rigor with support and flexibility. Our students are active, engaged, and fully enjoy a small school environment with the opportunity to try on various activities and interests. Our academic counselors work with you directly to create a schedule that is customized to you, ensuring you are challenged while receiving guidance. We look forward to getting to know each and every one of you, and would love to welcome you as a Husky or a Warrior!
Your Road to Fairmont High Schools
SIGN UP TO ATTEND A CAMPUS TOUR
The best way to learn about our program offerings is to sign up for a one-on-one campus tour with our Admission Directors.
SIGN UP FOR A VIRTUAL 4-YEAR PLAN
8th-grade students and their parents are invited to meet with our academic counselors, via Zoom, to create a unique 4-year plan based upon your student’s unique strengths and interests. This meeting will provide you with an academic framework to assist in the decision-making process, and is highly recommended, even if your family is looking at high schools other than Fairmont. 4-year plans will take place December – February.
APPLY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE (if applicable)
If your family is currently on financial assistance, you will be receiving an email communication in mid-December with instructions on how to re-apply. If you need to apply for financial assistance and have not done so in the past, please send an email to facommittee@fairmontschools.com for the application. All FA applications are due by February 28, 2022.
