Much like our current Prep students, we know that your student likely has many different interests and is eager to interact with the many different facets of Fairmont Prep. Our goal is to match your student with a current student who shares at least one similar interest and then give your student a realistic portrayal of what it means to be a Fairmont Prep Husky. During their Shadow Day experience, guests will have a chance to visit classes. Afterward, students will have the chance to ask any follow-up questions they may have.Â
Again, we look forward to having your student join us.

Best choice for education
I feel Fairmont set that foundation, which I obviously carry to this day. Hence we elected to send our kids there as well because I would believe once that foundation is set, you can't unset it. I feel that I'm very grateful for my parents for sending sending me there.

IB is the gold standard in education
The IB mandates that every teacher is trained every two years. That gives us the structure and the freedom to create really rich learning experiences for kids. And it's been really exciting to watch the students take control of their learning.

Learn, lead and have fun
In middle school, we get to choose our electives like art, drama, and debate, and my favorite is computers. We are always encouraged to find our passion and be creative. Fairmont Historic Anaheim Campus isn't just a school, it's the place where we learn, lead and have a lot of fun.
