Academics
As students progress through the grades, their creativity is used to build problem-solving skills and resourcefulness. Our students learn to conduct research, consider multiple perspectives and articulate their ideas. In doing so, they not only master important academic skills, but also learn to apply them to a variety of situations, building flexibility and mastery simultaneously.

Programs
At Fayerweather, being well-educated means more than doing well academically. Our students participate in a wide range of enrichment classes both during the school day and in our Afterschool programs. Studio art, woodshop and music, classes are all part of a child’s week.

Support
Community participation is a cornerstone of our school community. Active volunteerism and financial support, through the Annual Fund and other initiatives, are crucial to Fayerweather’s success. We cannot emphasize enough how important community participation is to our school, nor how much we value everyone’s contributions.
