I have often said that Fairburn is as good as it gets and all of the families there will know this once they move on to other bigger, less intimate schools where your child gets lost in the crowd. Fairburn delivers a first rate education close to home in a family/community atmosphere. Best of all it is a public school whose curriculum and teachers, staff, and administration could go up against the best of them, private or public, across the country. Fairburn has been delivering a stellar education for over eighty years in Westwood. I was lucky enough to have graduated from Fairburn back in the sixties and am thrilled and grateful to have our son there. It is a close-knit atmosphere that supports as well as stimulates your child continually. The parent community is highly involved. All of Fairburn's teachers are highly qualified, experienced, and dedicated. Fairburn's performance on the state tests is always outstanding but the educational focus goes beyond just teaching to the test. We are so fortunate to have a comprehensive approach to our children's education through computer, theatre arts, music appreciation, art, physical education, literature, science, and math programs. There are fabulous after-school programs, one of which allows our children to participate in a school orchestra from kindergarten. There is no question in my mind that starting with kindergarten, our children receive all of the educational, social, and ethical fundamentals that they will need to achieve whatever goals they shall seek in life. Moreover, happily, Fairburn instills in them a love for learning that will inspire them throughout life. Fairburn deserves to win!!!!!

Fairburn has been a great school for my child after our move from elsewhere in the state. The teacher is concerned about children and so is the school. LAUSD is fund distressed but Fairburn does a great job of collective education by fundraising and appropriating the funds to useful programs to children at all levels. The school makes my family happy and my child very happy! It needs to win, it deserves to win!!
