Fairview History

Cincinnati's second oldest magnet school, the original Fairview School was built in 1888 on the corner of Stratford and Warner in Fairview.

In 1958, overcrowding was finally relieved with the dedication of the Fairview School Annex, called the "new building." The intention was to tear down the original Romanesque Revival style building but due to declining enrollment, it never happened.

In 1982, Fairview officially became the Fairview German Bilingual School (later changed to Fairview German Language School in 1994).

In 2008, Fairview was renamed Fairview-Clifton German Language School when it moved to its current location on the corner of Clifton Avenue and McAlpin in Clifton.
