Fairmont's junior high and high school speech and debate
programs offer students a significant edge in the college
admissions process and in the pursuit of challenging
careers. Participation in speech and debate provides
students real cognitive and behavioral benefits, such as
improved reading, communication and critical thinking
skills. Student debaters learn to function on a team and
with fellow debate students in a competitive environment,
attending multiple competitions throughout the year. Debate
participation fosters intellectual curiosity and increases
motivation, transforming students into more engaged and
responsible young adults with a stronger work ethic.

Led by professional engineers, the Robotics Program
explores the continuous progression of technology.
Students blend creativity with physics, computer
programming, science, engineering and other
academic principles in order to solve daunting technical
challenges. They become immersed in examining
the problem, designing and building the technical
solution along with conducting tests to ensure working
ability.. They learn and use sophisticated software
and hardware to build a robot of their design.
Students experiment and manipulate technology
together as a team. This high level of collaboration
drives the passion behind the "Huskyteers," Fairmont
Prep's Robotics Team. The team participates in an
internationally renowned competition hosted by FIRST(For
Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology).
The accomplishments resulting from this program
build confidence and provide a catalyst to countless
academic and career possibilities. It also provides
opportunities to receive college scholarships.
