FAIRVIEW SOUTH

Fairview South is a public high school that is part of the Elmbrook School District school district, located in Brookfield, WI with about 22 students offering grade levels from 6th Grade to 12th Grade. With about 10 teachers, Fairview South has a student/teacher ratio of about 2:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Fairview South is a specialized educational facility located in Brookfield, Wisconsin, operating under the umbrella of the Elmbrook School District. The school is distinct from traditional K-12 campuses in that it serves students with complex learning needs. It offers a highly structured, supportive environment designed to foster academic, social, and functional independence for students who require specialized instruction and therapeutic services beyond what is typically provided in a standard classroom setting.

The school is known for its focus on personalized programming, utilizing a multidisciplinary team—which often includes special education teachers, therapists, and behavioral specialists—to meet the unique requirements of each student. By emphasizing life skills, individualized goal setting, and a nurturing atmosphere, Fairview South aims to help its students reach their full potential and successfully navigate their transition into adulthood or more integrated educational environments. The facility is a reflection of the Elmbrook district's commitment to inclusive, comprehensive educational opportunities for all students within the community.
