Summary

Fairfield Magnet School is a top-performing public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Shreveport, Louisiana. Part of the Caddo Parish school district, Fairfield Magnet School has consistently ranked among the top 10 elementary schools in Louisiana, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Fairfield Magnet School's academic performance is exceptional, with 99-100% of students proficient or better in LEAP English Language Arts and Mathematics across all grade levels - significantly higher than the Caddo Parish and Louisiana state averages. The school also demonstrates equity in outcomes, achieving high performance across diverse student subgroups, including female, male, African American, and white students, as well as students from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

While Fairfield Magnet School's performance is outstanding, nearby schools like South Highlands Elementary Magnet School and Eden Gardens Fundamental Elementary School also demonstrate strong academic results. Fairfield Magnet School's relatively low student-teacher ratio and lower percentage of students from low-income backgrounds may contribute to its exceptional performance, and understanding the school's practices and resources could provide valuable insights for other schools.

Open Quote Based on my 25+ years of teaching experience in several Caddo Parish Elementary Schools, in addition to have attended various public elementary schools as a child, I can sincerely say that Fairfield is unique is the best of ways.
Fairfield is a small sized school, 3 classes in each grade K-5 with a large variety of enrichment classes and a newly built library that serves as a vital integration of each classroom. We are always open for visitors to come and see the best kept secret in Caddo Parish. Come and see! Close Quote
