Welcome to the Fairborn City School district, home of the Skyhawks! Fairborn has 17 national board certified teachers; more than any other district in the Miami Valley. We have renovated our high school and middle school science labs and they are the best in the area. We have strong special education programs and gifted programs. Our academic teams at the middle/high school are highly competitive and we have an outstanding JROTC program at Fairborn High School with academy appointments and millions of dollars in scholarships awarded each year. Fairborn High School is rated "Effective" on the Ohio Department of Education report card and our other buildings are rated "Continuous Improvement." We continue to strive for academic excellence that will prepare all of our students for success. You can also visit the Fairborn City Schools' Web site at http://www.fairborn.k12.oh.us!

We welcome you and your children to the Mad River School District. Our school district is a member of the National Association of Federally Impacted Schools (NAFIS) and the Military Impacted Schools Association (MISA). Children from our military families and all families in transition need our best efforts to make the most of their education. Mad River is a diverse, multicultural, innovative school district with a state and national reputation for continuous school improvement. Over the past several years, scores on state and national tests have improved steadily due to strong teacher, administrator, Board of Education support, and community collaboration.

We are justifiably proud of our school system. All seven of our schools are brand new, state-of-the-art facilities. Our school district is comprised of four elementary schools, two middle schools, and one high school. It is Mad River’s goal to develop the uniqueness of each child by providing a variety of activities within the school day. Exposure to a rich and varied curriculum encourages children to grow and develop as well-rounded individuals. Mad River offers an outstanding preschool program and Special Education curriculum designed to meet the needs of students with disabilities. We have made a concerted effort to hire the best teachers, principals, and support staff possible and have kept our workforce current with best practices through excellent training programs. We stand ready to make this the best school district for all students.
