The staff at Fair Haven School truly care about their students. I've noticed many of the reviews on this page are outdated. Since the posts from years ago, Fair Haven School has gained new administration and new teachers who have come in and really changed the climate of the building. Many students who come to this school are far below grade level. Teachers work hard to make sure that the growth being made by each of their students in more than a year's worth (in an attempt to get them closer to their grade level benchmarks). Teachers have put together committees and use strategies to better connect with parents and people in the community. There will always be some outliers of students who have a difficult time during the school day, but overall students are respectful and teachers work hard to connect with them. There is only so much that you can learn about a building from the statistics and test score data. It is important to look at the make up of a building in order to truly understand how much effort and love a staff is putting into their job.

Not a good school if you have a child whom is disabled with little speech at my sons PPT they exited him out of speech and physical therapy and he is not in an inclusion class room with an aide with his other peers he is high functioning being labeled as interlecialy disabled and is in a class room with mostly non functioning disabled kids my son is entitled to these services and as a parent I am very disappointed and will be fighting for my sons rights
