FAIR High is a public high school serving grades 09–12 in MINNEAPOLIS. It is one of 97 current school records connected to Minneapolis Public School District. NCES reports 337 students for 2024–25.

The reported student–teacher ratio is 15.7:1, close to the Minnesota median of 14.3:1 for the same school level. This ratio uses total enrollment and teacher FTE; it is not an average classroom headcount and can be affected by special programs or part-time staffing.
The two largest reported race and ethnicity groups are White (36.2%) and Black (33.5%). English learners represent 19.5% of enrollment. Students served under IDEA represent 26.7%. These figures help families understand who the school serves; they are not rating inputs.
The 2021–22 civil-rights collection reports access to gifted and talented programming. Program availability changes, so families should confirm the current catalog and participation rules directly with the school.
