i have always felt that Fair Grove school has had in place a high standard for student success and attention to tutoring as needed as well. I have a son who is a senior who is currently attending and a son who graduated in 2010

It's a good school, there are great people and they offer a great one on one learning environment. However, it is a very small school environment, with small town kind of learning. I believe the overall learning suffers because of lack of diverse views.

My students transferred from a springfield school and they are learning so much more and have more 1 on 1 learning. It is a great school.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Missouri used the End-of-Course (EOC) Assessments to test high school students in Algebra I, Algebra II, Geometry, English I, English II, American History, Government, and Biology. The EOC Assessments are standards-based, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined by the state of Missouri for each subject. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test.
