Welcome to Fay Elementary, School of College and Career Exploration and a California Distinguished School!

Fay is located in a thriving, exciting area of San Diego. Our student body is equally thriving and exciting, contributing a wealth of cultural backgrounds to the mix. More than 80 percent of students speak a language other than English; among them Cambodian, Vietnamese, Spanish, Somali and the Sudanese language, Nuer.

Over the past few years, our students’ academic performance has increased. We credit our students, staff and parents for this achievement. Staff implements research-based instructional practices, which are reinforced by Fay's involved and supportive parents.
