Fairview Elementary School is one of two elementary schools in District 57.  We are located in the town of Mount Prospect, fifteen miles west of Lake Michigan.  Our school houses approximately 420 students in grades 2-5.  Our staff consists of 66 individuals ranging from teachers, specials teachers, literacy coaches, support service providers and instructional aides, a computer technician, secretaries, a nurse, custodial staff, Kids’ Corner staff, and the Principal.  We believe that students come first and what we do matters!  We are Fairview strong!

The office will be closed July 5-16.
