The mission of Fairfax Collegiate School is to provide able students with a challenging and engaging liberal-arts education in a safe, supporting, and creative environment. The school enrolls students in grades four through eight.
Classrooms are quiet, structured settings where students can concentrate.
Fairfax Collegiate's teachers combine expertise in their subjects with the awareness that elementary and middle school students require intensive assistance and encouragement. Teachers provide each student with individual attention and acquire a deep understanding of each student's abilities and interests. Fairfax Collegiate serves academically strong students who work hard and who attend the school because they seek to achieve their full academic potential. Courses progress faster than at most schools and use a variety of instructional methods. Many parents have skills that they use to enrich the life of the school.
