Fairmont Heights is a highly regarded community school that celebrated its fifty-fifth anniversary this year. The school enjoys a rich history that has provided the educational foundation for alumni who serve the larger community in a broad spectrum of capacities, including public office, business, education, authorship, law, medicine, sports, film and more. The school is cherished by a supportive alumni association, community and faculty, committed to providing students the academic foundation for college and career entry level competencies.

The curriculum is a highly structured, comprehensive liberal arts program of study that is enhanced by a JROTC Program, an Academy of Finance, and a Bio-Technology Magnet Program. Fairmont Heights is a community school for students enrolled in the Comprehensive Program; however, students who are admitted to the Biotechnology Magnet program are transported from throughout Prince George’s County to access this specialized program of study.
