Fairview Heights District and Curriculum
The schools that serve Fairview Heights strive to produce students who are equipped to challenge the future as knowledgeable people who understand and apply a core body of knowledge and skills across the curriculum and take responsibility for their own learning. Students are asked to transfer acquired knowledge to life experiences and to be quality producers who demonstrate a commitment to establish, meet, and exceed goals. The districts also aim to have students take up learning opportunities through electives and extracurriculars that help them connect with personal interests.
We currently cover the following Fairview Heights-area school districts: BTHS District 201, District 110, LaGrange School District 105 and O’Fallon Township High School 110.
Educating Our Parents: Understanding the Fairview Heights District Curriculum
Students are taught to be independent and learn pride in their own work. They are taught to use resources, technology, and time effectively and efficiently. Students are expected to be collaborative workers who treat themselves and others with respect and are capable of working within a variety of groups to achieve their goals while setting their own goals and managing and evaluating their own behavior as a group member.
In humanities classes, students read for comprehension and synthesis, use a variety of techniques, resources, and technology to gather information, and collect and analyze information. Across all curriculums, students are trained to be critical thinkers who use analytical thinking to solve problems as well as evaluating and refining strategies for solving problems. Students are also taught to be effective communicators who observe attentively, speak effectively, write clearly and expressively, and demonstrate thoughtful listening skills.

Chalk Talk: Early Decision vs. Regular Decision
There are many different types of college applications. Early Decision (ED) is one of the most popular. ED applications often have early deadlines, sometimes as soon as November 1st, though some colleges set them as early as October 15th. Since they are early, applicants compete against fewer other applicants, which improves the student’s odds. ED applications are also binding, which means the student signs a contract, along with parents, stating that s/he will attend the college if accepted. Colleges tend to look favorably on this, so it can be an advantage to the student, but it can also be a drawback. Because of these qualities, ED applicants tend to face much higher odds of acceptance, sometimes significantly higher. But a student should only ever apply ED to a school if s/he is absolutely sure that’s the college for him/her.
