This is a great time to attend Fairvalley High School. We do not see ourselves as merely a continuation high school. We see our school as an alternative to the larger high school. Fairvalley High School students have unlimited access to technology. The depth of our coursework is steadily on the rise in order for our students to find the same level of rigor that they had at the comprehensive high school. This is to ensure that our students will be prepared to respond to that same level of rigor upon return to the comprehensive high school and/or transition to college. However, a smaller class size promotes a less restrictive environment in each of our classes so that individual attention helps our students gain access to learning they may not have encountered in the larger school setting. Like the comprehensives, Fairvalley students take the PSAT and SAT as well as all other district assessments. Furthermore, Fairvalley High School maintains consortiums and partnerships with colleges such as Citrus College, Mount San Antonio College, and Azusa Pacific University.
Fairvalley High School is now part of the San Gabriel Valley Continuation League (SGVCL) which is an athletic league. Our Falcons compete in flag football, basketball, softball, and soccer with alternative high schools all over the San Gabriel Valley. After school offerings include welding, ROP classes, and adult education classes in which students can earn additional elective credit as they pursue potential careers. In addition, our students may decide to join the workforce after school from which they can earn elective credit while earning pay and acquiring job skills.
Fairvalley students participate in school leadership and a myriad of extracurricular activities such as dance club, art projects beyond the classroom, field trips, and an after-school fitness program. 2018 saw the inauguration of Fairvalley's first prom and we are adding a back-to-school dance and a Halloween dance.
Many of our students come to us with the intention of getting caught up on credits but decide later that Fairvalley is a better fit for them. As our reputation continues to grow, Fairvalley High School is rapidly becoming a school of choice. For that matter, Fairvalley is a California Model Continuation High School!
