Magnet
School Enrollment
Fairview German Language School will be moving to
its new location at Clifton Avenue and McAlpin in
the Fall of 2008. Parents
interested in enrolling their child at Fairview
in Preschool, Kindergarten or 1st Grade are encouraged
to visit the current school on Stratford to observe
classes and talk to the faculty to see if Fairview
is right for you and your child.
Because of the German language curriculum at Fairview,
students are admitted into Kindergarten and 1st
Grade levels only and beginning next year, full-day
Preschool. However, prospective students with some
knowledge and experience of German may be admitted
at other grade levels upon approval. Call the main
office at (513) 363-2100 with any questions regarding
admission to Fairview.

either Preschool or Kindergarten at Fairview for
the 2008-09 school year, click

Parents who wish to enroll their child as an underage

same procedures as any open enrollment school-age child.
The student needs to be screened by a CPS school psychologist
and recommended for kindergarten placement prior to being
placed on a class list. Students may only be screened
one time. Arrangements for the screening can be made by
calling the Fair-view office at 363-2100. Underage children
who are not recommended to begin kindergarten will not
be accepted. Open spots occurring will be given to the
next child on the waiting list. If an underage child is
on the waiting list and no recommended to enter kindergarten
will be removed from the waiting list. Parents may reapply
during the magnet enrollment cycle for the 2009-2010 school
year.

Parents who attend a tour between October and February
11 may pick up and fill out an application ahead of time.
Applications will not be accepted until February 11, 2008.
The parent needs to take the application home and bring
it back with copies of the additional documentation on
Feb. 11. No applications will be taken and held ahead
of time.

Fairview
Philosophy
The
purpose of the German language program at Fairview is
to enrich each child's educational experience through
intensive daily exposure (approximately 60 minutes of
instruction per day) to the "German language and
culture." Ultimately, each child should:
- Learn
to understand, speak, read and write German
- Develop
an understanding for German speaking people and their
way of life
- Develop
an appreciation for the contributions of German-Americans
to American life
- Develop
positive multi-ethnic and multicultural attitudes, demonstrate
improved learning skills and
- Behave
in a manner reflecting increased self discipline
Curriculum
German instruction at Fairview is provided within
the framework of an intensive Foreign Language in the
Elementary School (FLES) program with emphasis on content
enrichment. In addition to traditional foreign language
instruction, topics in curriculum areas such as social
studies, science and math are covered in the German classroom
as well. There is an extensive, detailed German curriculum
for each grade level. Authentic materials, German textbooks,
and a variety of regalia are implemented on a regular
basis to supplement the established curriculum at each
grade level.
