Our child is neurodiverse, and we have had nothing but positive experiences from the principal, to the nurse, to all the support staff and teachers. We know our child's education is in good hands at Fairmount!
Posted by a parent on 9/16/2022Don’t be fooled by the rating. This school was absolutely awful. The first grade teachers need to retire. We went the whole school year and my child’s first grade teacher was still emailing me misspelling my child’s and and referring to her as he. I corrected her more times then I can count and it s
Posted by a parent on 6/13/2021I couldn't be happier with our experience at Fairmount. We feel lucky to have our children in such a warm and loving environment every day!
Posted by a parent on 10/16/2019If you have a child that needs an IEP this is not the school for you. They will do everything in their power not to give you an IEP. If your kid doesn't need any extra help or any interventions they will do fine at this school. Great teachers that really care about the kids. Principal is more concer

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe principal of the school has a terrible attitude and fake smile.She is terrible with parents and every morning she yells,and every morning when i come by car especially I personally have frustration and stress...nothing to anyone.I have witnessed several times that they open the door in front of me and help the children out.When its my cars turn,they stop and pretend they are not there.When they see that im not moving,they wave their hands for me to go and get out of the circle.The child is still sitting inside because he cannot get out cause he had a child lock.I show them that the child is still inside and ofcourse they just ignore.Then i go out and open the door for him...And every every time like that...THE WORST SCHOOL WITH TERRIBLY UNPROFESIONAL PEOPLE WHO WORK WITH EXTRA SMALL CHILDREN...VERY SCARYParent Review2mo ago - Downers Grove Adventist School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe classrooms are well designed, no corner or square inch is wasted and they encourage creativity and learning, but yet it’s homey and cozy. The teachers are top notch!Parent Review1y ago
