Academic Support

Freshman seminar is a course designed to promote a successful transition between middle school and high school. Taught by Fairview teachers and Knight Crew students, the course provides 9th grade students with the opportunities for academic enrichment and assistance, as well as the chance to improve organizational and communication skills. Since every freshman is in a seminar class, and the classes are smaller, it gives us the perfect venue for sharing information, touching base with goals and grades, and participating in common school activities. Seminar also provides future planning, course selection, progress monitoring, building independent learners and student self efficacy.

Students who are in need of an extra measure of academic support should meet with their counselor to consider additional options, such as being assigned to the Fairview Resource Center (FRC). See information below regarding the FRC. Contact your student’s counselor with any questions or concerns regarding additional support for your student.

The Fairview Resource Center is located in the FHS library and is a quiet environment for students to receive academic support, tutoring, and other resources. The Fairview Resource Center supports students in Study Hall class and those not enrolled in Study Hall.

Students can also be assigned to the FRC as a study hall. This is a one-semester, 5-credit class that is available for 9-12th graders and is taught by a teacher who provides students with tutoring resources for the core subject areas of the curriculum. It is part of the student's everyday class schedule and can be repeated each semester as needed, but it can be taken only with approval from the student's counselor.

In Study Hall classes, students work on assignments, study for assessments, and access school resources. At times, they may also pursue independent projects.

Walk-in Services are available and include proctored test make-ups, peer tutoring in a variety of subjects, textbook sign-out, use of SAT/ACT test prep materials, computer & printer access, and quiet study space.

For more information, contact Fairview counselors, or Resource Specialist: jocelyn.huerta@bvsd.org 720.561.3399

Please note: Fairview High School does not endorse any particular individual or business for tutoring or test preparation.

Access Time is offered every Thursday morning from 8:35 am to 9:30 am.  This is a dedicated time when students can access their teachers for one on one support.  We encourage all students to take advantage of this time.
