Representing a variety of private day schools in Fairfield, CT and Westchester, NY counties, Fairchester Independent Schools work collaboratively to promote the value of private school education and make the admission process more accessible for prospective families.
While each Fairchester School offers a unique learning community, our group of independent schools share common values, priorities, and accreditation standards. At Fairchester Independent Schools, you’ll find:
Outstanding Teachers
