International Food Day in AP Human Geography! Students brought in dishes from the countries they are studying this year and even tried some crickets!
Dear Parents,
As we come to the close of a difficult week and prepare for the Thanksgiving Holiday, I want to express how thankful I am for our students and staff. I am proud of how our teachers and staff have supported and cared for our students while maintaining the normal and comforting routines of school. We really are a family here at Fairfax High School.
I wish you all a Thanksgiving filled with good food and the company of friends and family!

This is the highest state level ensemble a high school student can audition and be selected for and we are so proud he will represent Fairfax High School!
