Fairfield Warde High School is a co-educational secondary school located in Fairfield, Connecticut, United States.
History
In 2001, Fairfield High School was deemed overcrowded. To alleviate population overflow, Fairfield Ludlowe High School was opened at the former Roger Ludlowe High School site in 2003, then being used as Roger Ludlowe Middle School. The middle school has since claimed a new building, located next to Fairfield Ludlowe High School. The existing Fairfield High School, originally called Andrew Warde High School since its opening in 1956, was renamed Fairfield Warde High School in 2004 so both schools could keep the historic Fairfield names from before the 1987 consolidation but also maintain the reputation of the Fairfield name. In the 2003–2004 school year, Warde went under an extensive renovation projection which was completed in 2006.For years, Warde was known for its successes in women's sports, notably volleyball and softball,and in math league, in which it dominated county and state competition for most of the 70s and 80s,and occasionally won regional (New England) championships.
