Overall, New Fairfield High School is a very good public School. The teachers are the best part, as for the most part they are nice and dedicated to the students.The school is launching a beautiful new building, which will hopefully make it even better. A potential negative would be the lack of diversity at the school which will affect some people.

New Fairfield has provided me with many opportunities to grow as a student and individual. There are a wide variety of clubs as well as classes that are available and cater to students' interests. I have made the most of my learning by taking multiple Honors and AP courses that have helped me to challenge myself and enjoy learning in new ways. I am President of Spanish Club which I have been part of since my freshman year and I have also been able to be part of 3 sports teams where I have made some of my closest friends. New Fairfield is a place that allows you to get involved and be known as more than just a face in a crowd. It allows you to build connections that will last a lifetime.

I do like most of my teachers because I feel they understand whenever I am working on a project or assignment. I would like to see the management of the sports department to be better and I do not want to see anyone excluded out of any sports or activity in general for any reason.

My daughter just graduated in June 2016. She had some personal problems along the way, mainly in 9th and 10th grade. The school was very accommodating, helpful and proactive in helping my daughter. The principal, her counselor and the entire guidance staff were particularly helpful. She ended up gra...
