Fairmont Private Schools - Anaheim Hills Campus

School may have just ended a few hours ago…but our Fairmont Anaheim Hills Summer Programs staff is already in planning and training mode.

Lift off in 3 (2…1…) days…and we just can’t wait! 🚀

On this day, our Fairmont family salutes our fallen heroes. 🇺🇸

Sprinting into Friday after a marathon of a week. 🏃

We can’t help but start off this weekend smiling at seeing our preschooler Austin representing Fairmont in the Kids Run The OC Marathon. Austin ran a mile in 10:55!!

He won a medal - and our hearts! Go Austin…Cougar Strong!! 💪🏼❤️🏅🐾

Be kind to your mind. 🧠

We recognize May as Mental Health Awareness Month.

Fairmont Schools is dedicated to helping students thrive not only academically, but personally.

Jill Thomas, our on-staff Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, works in tandem with parents, teachers, campus leadership, and academic counselors to help identify both academic and personal challenges that may be preventing a student from achieving their personal best.

We encourage all our students, staff and families to reach out if she can be of assistance at any time.

As our Fairmont campuses prepare for all the pomp and circumstance that come with our special graduation ceremonies, we couldn’t be more pleased to announce our speaker for this year’s ceremony at Fairmont Prep.

JJ Thomas, 2002 Olympic bronze medal winner, coach of multiple Olympic US snowboarders (including Shaun White), and mentor and head coach of the US Snowboard and Halfpipe Development Team, will deliver the keynote address to the Class of 2022 during Fairmont Preparatory Academy’s commencement ceremony on May 26 at Pearson Park Amphitheater in Anaheim.

Thomas will draw from many of his personal experiences as a competitive snowboarder and coach as he brings a message that will focus on the importance of perseverance and the value of embracing failure – one of life’s greatest teachers.

“After spending half of their high school years in a global pandemic, our graduates have come to understand the merits of being tenacious and picking themselves up when things don’t go their way,” said Carolyn Lucia, Head of School at Fairmont Preparatory Academy (Fairmont Prep) and Managing Director of Fairmont Campuses. “JJ will speak to these things, encouraging our graduates to grow throughout their difficulties and failures, and challenging them to do the types of things which have led to success for himself and the athletes he has coached: make smart choices, use their gifts, and exhibit steadfast dedication.”

In his profession as a coach and mentor, JJ has focused on high-level performers – the same type of individuals he will be addressing at Fairmont Prep, which boasts a student population characterized by high achievement. As has been true historically at “the Prep,” this year’s graduates received offers from many of the nation’s top colleges and universities, including Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Johns Hopkins, Rice, Cal Berkeley, and USC.

One thing is certain – whether graduate, family member, teacher, staff, or member of the community – everyone will benefit from what JJ has to share.

Today…as they held their last meeting…we bid goodbye to our Fairmont Parent Association Board of the 2021-2022 school year.

In a year full of constant changes and shifts, these leaders persevered and led our campus through amazing events.

From our glorious holiday gift shoppe and successful gently worn sales….to valentine grams, Operation Candy and the most beautiful Teacher and Staff Appreciation week ever, these women navigated it all with intellect, beauty and grace.

We cannot thank them enough for their hard work and will always cherish this year in great part to their events and leadership.

Onto the next…we can’t wait to usher in the board of 2022-2023.

We love celebrating around here, especially when it comes to our amazing staff. So let’s just keep it going…shall we 🤗…

Happy Administrative Professionals Day to Ms. Kasey Carter in our Reception and Mrs. Tania Chavez in our Registrar!

From manning the front office and all that comes with it…to helping with student enrollment registration and grades…we simply couldn’t do without the help of these two lovely ladies.

Thank you for all that you do to keep these roles running! We appreciate you!👏🏼
