Remote Learning via Live Streamed Classrooms
Fairmont’s remote learning program is a 5-day a week, full school day, synchronous program that provides live stream classroom instruction, featuring our award-winning teachers and standards-based curriculum.
- Small class sizes with individualized instruction – maintaining current student:teacher ratios and continuing to offer academic assistance and ability grouping
- Accelerated, proprietary curriculum where rigor is our legacy!
- Emphasis on the classroom learning experience – live-streamed classrooms provide a modicum of normalcy.
- Teachers trained in SEL – teachers are learning new ways to support our students’ social and emotional growth in the age of Covid-19.
- Technology Investment – Fairmont has invested in hardware and software to make the remote learning experience just as exceptional as our in-person option.
- Parent workshops and resources give parents additional tools and support as we continue to honor their role as partners in teaching with us.
In-Person Learning
Fairmont has implemented a host of safety measures to ensure the wellbeing of students, teachers, and staff. Fairmont’s Reopening Task Force continues to monitor the situation daily, revising our safe reopening protocols accordingly. At present the following measures are in place:
- Physical distancing of desks
- Face coverings for all students, teachers, and staff
- Installation of hands-free restroom facilities on all campuses
- Installation of plexiglass screens and social distancing notifications where appropriate
- Additional cleaning and sanitation of classrooms, playgrounds, and common areas

Our experience and the advice of health and educational experts confirm that children — especially our youngest students — learn best when they are physically present at school. For this reason, we will continue to do our utmost to create the safest on-campus environment possible.
We understand that COVID likely will be a health risk for some time. Therefore, we will continue offering a remote option into the 2021-22 school year in order to remain flexible and provide choices to our families. Our team continues to improve every aspect of our remote learning offerings to make them as robust and engaging as possible.
