Hello, I am an 8th grade student at Fairfield Middle School. I am in IB and this school is surely underrated. If you heard that the school is ghetto you are wrong. Fairfield has some of the best teachers in the world. I won't lie to you there are a lot of fights and some of the students don't bring there best attitude to school but besides those few people it is awesome. When it comes to academics teachers make it very easy. If somebody fails its certainly not the teacher's fault. We have over 10 sports that you can play for the school which is average for middle schools. We tend to succeed in all sports. We have many great clubs like drama club, alpha academy, and the best of all, Do Something Club! Do something club helps out the world in many ways. We actually started a project for a Fairfield Fresh Market where we can serve the community fresh, healthy food for low costs. All that food was planted in our own garden.Shout out to Ms. Hall. (the club leader) We have a great music program. We recently were in a competition and our school won for orchestra, chorus, band, and jazz band. Shout out to Ms. Storrs and Ms. Murray! (the band director and the chorus and strings director)

I was a substitute teacher at Fairfield Middle School this year. In the 7th grade classroom, 2 girls were fighting each other in the first 5 minutes of the class. After security removed them, the class never settled down. They would not listen, didn't care about learning, and refused to complete any work. I will not be returning to Fairfield.

First off, I am an eighth grader at Fairfield Middle School. I am currently still in the IB program ever since 6th grade and I have enjoyed it. People say bad stuff about Fairfield and I can honestly say that it's not true. Fairfield has improved over the many years. It's not an hard program there is of course homework and projects and community and service though. People are controlled everywhere, definitely learning too. Discipline? You ask well yes, there's also this one teacher who makes sure you listen and follow directions at lunch. Nobody messes around with him and all the teachers are hard working. I like how there is a big mixture of different kinds of students and no matter what everyone fits in and has fun at this school. I can only speak for the IB program but at times non-ib kids are in the same elective and they know how to behave. It's not the school that's bad and ghetto only the people/students that make it that way.
