The FAIR High School for Arts is THE Artist’s Choice for High School!
Does picking up a paintbrush, stepping
on a stage, or writing a song transform you and allow you to truly express
yourself? Do you dream big and not only think outside the box, but erase it
altogether? Are you looking for a high school that feels like home, where you
can be accepted for who you are? Then we welcome you to The FAIR High School
for Arts, which is THE place for artists and performers. Located in downtown
Minneapolis at the gateway to the Arts District, The Fine Arts
Interdisciplinary Resource (FAIR) School for Arts is a public 9-12 citywide
magnet high school rooted in equity, innovation and creativity. All students,
regardless of background or experience in the arts, or residence in
Minneapolis, can request to attend FAIR and learn through arts-integrated
classes and diverse downtown arts and career internship experiences. From
performing on the stages of historic theaters to showcasing art at the X-Games,
FAIR students see art not as an extracurricular activity, but core to their
learning.
Students’ individual interests and
talents are nurtured through diverse and culturally sustaining learning
experiences both inside the walls of FAIR and extending to the greater downtown
arts campus. Fine arts and core content teachers will get to know students'
individuals to guide them on their paths to success. FAIR wants to help
students discover and refine their own artistry by connecting them with
resident professional artists and partnerships in the downtown
community.
Perform on stage, create in a studio,
or work behind the scenes while completing a high school degree through
arts-integrated coursework. All students entering grades 9-12, regardless
of background or experience in the arts, are invited to apply through a
flexible admissions process. Students with an eagerness to learn and a
capacity for continued growth are encouraged to come learn with FAIR.
The FAIR High School for Arts is a
Minneapolis Public School - but is unique as the District's only high school
magnet and only MPS school that gives equal priority to residents and
non-residents. Students enrolled at FAIR also have equal access to Go-To Passes
for taking the city bus to and from school. Non-Minneapolis residents welcome!
