Fairfield’s
Performing Arts programs, including choral
groups, bands, orchestras and Thespian
presentations, can boast of state, regional
and national recognition and commendation,
regularly participating and winning Grand
Champion honors in invitation-only events
and competitions.
Upon
completing their general music requirement
in fifth grade, roughly 50 percent of
Fairfield’s sixth- through eighth-graders continue to participate in instrumental and chorus classes and performing groups. 20 to 25 percent of Fairfield’s High School students continue these musical experiences. The result of such active participation and commitment among students, staff and parents (The Tempo Club) is an unsurpassed level of achievement. In grades 5-12, the Fairfield Schools offer students opportunities to join 13 concert, marching and jazz bands, seven symphonies and orchestras, nine concert & show
choirs and glee clubs and the Thespians.
Whether in concert or competition, these
groups – from the Fifth-Grade Glee Club and Middle School Rhythm Express to the High School Chamber Winds and Wind Ensemble – sustain Fairfield’s tradition of excellence and our district’s
state and regional reputation as a leader
in the performing arts.
District
Athletics programs are offered to about
30 boys and girls athletic teams, including
about 20 Greater Miami Conference (GMC)
sports and dance programs. Athletic programs
include district, regional and state
champions in both individual events and
team sport. A variety of competitive
academic extra-curricular teams and student
clubs ensure that he district's students
have access to a well-rounded education.
Through

booster clubs for athletics and performing
arts, business partnerships and mentoring/reading
programs, the community is an energetic
ally in the success of Fairfield’s
educational and extra-curricular programs.
