behind the scenes at Fairs we service all over North America . The Academy is located
right at the parent's workplace, which keeps them up to date and involved in their
children's education. Looking out the window of this classroom you will see a much
bigger playground from the typical schoolyard. The academy consists of two mobile
custom classroom trailers in operation 4-6 days/week offering educational programming
for children preschool- grade 12. The schedule of school is organized to fit into
