Original Research by School Decision on Fairview Daep
Fairview DAEP is an alternative school operated by Robert Lee ISD and located on Fairview School Road in San Angelo. The school is no longer active.
The data available reflects the school's final year of operation in 2021-22. At that time, state testing results were not reported; only a single student was tested across math, English language arts, science, and social studies, which means the proficiency rates could not be calculated and disclosed. No enrollment figures, demographic breakdowns, free-or-reduced-price lunch counts, or other student characteristics were reported in the available records.
Alternative schools typically serve students who need a different educational setting from traditional public schools, often addressing behavioral, disciplinary, or other specialized needs. As a DAEP—a Disciplinary Alternative Education Program—Fairview existed to provide that pathway for Robert Lee ISD. Because the school is now inactive, families in the Robert Lee ISD area seeking an alternative placement would need to contact the district directly about current options.
San Angelo, the city where Fairview was located, is a mixed-use West Texas city with a historic downtown along the Concho River that combines commercial, civic, and residential activity. The riverfront Concho River Walk is a four-mile lit trail system with parks, gardens, and public amenities that serves as a community hub. Daily life centers on this downtown core and the river corridor; broader residential growth is occurring in new subdivisions on the city's edges and through adaptive reuse of historic buildings downtown. The economic base is anchored by Goodfellow Air Force Base, Shannon Medical Center, San Angelo ISD, and Angelo State University, along with manufacturing and food processing operations. Housing in the 78704 zip code carries a median value consistent with the broader West Texas market and slightly below the state average, with rents rising modestly.
Robert Lee ISD held a school bond election in 2025. The specifics of that bond—its amount, scope, and property-tax impact—are confirmed to have been voted on and canvassed, but those details were not available in public sources to report here. Families considering the district would want to confirm those details directly with the district office.
