The Fairview School District's 2023-2026 Comprehensive Plan focuses on empowering students to achieve their personal best in academics, athletics, arts, and service. The plan addresses challenges in math achievement, particularly at the 5th-grade level and among economically disadvantaged students. Key priorities include implementing structured literacy across all ELA classrooms, strengthening MTSS systems to support struggling learners, and enhancing career readiness opportunities.
