Interested in attending Fairfax Academy?

Visits are highly recommended, but not required. Students must schedule their visit at least one week in advance with their school counselor.

School visits are only available for current FCPS 9th-11th grade students. If your student is currently in middle school, please attend our evening Open House on February 4, 2025 from 6:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m.

Please follow these steps:

  1. Students should meet with their School Counselor to talk about Fairfax Academy courses and your schedule, and which class students would like to visit.
  2. Student visits are held Wednesdays and Thursdays, from February 5 - 27, 2025.
  3. Counselors should contact Fairfax Academy Administrative Asst. Sarah Tarvid to schedule visits at [email protected] or (703) 219-2226. Indicate the date of visit, the Academy block of visit (AM 8:30 a.m. - 9:40 a.m., MID 11:45 a.m. - 1:10 p.m., or PM 1:00 p.m. - 2:10 p.m.), the course(s) to visit, and student's current grade level. Please have alternate days/times in case first choices are not available. (Please note: not all classes are available every block.)
  4. All student visitors must have a completed and signed Visitor's Pass, available from the base school counselor.

It is recommended that families attend the Open House (February 4th from 6:30 p.m. - 7:30 p.m.) to meet with teachers and visit classrooms!

If you are not currently a student at a traditional FCPS high school, contact Academy Administrative Asst. Sarah Tarvid at [email protected].
