The motto was formerly incorrect. Edited. The actual motto of Prep is "ad majorem dei gloriam".

Actually, it's not. The motto is Per Fidem Ad Plenam Veritatem. It's on the back of the school's handbook, which I am an owner of, as a student of the school. richardmarcj
"ad majorem dei gloriam" is the Jesuit motto not Prep's. However, it is easy to confuse even for alumni. Until the 70s, it was a requirement for students to write A.M.D.G. at the top of papers. This served as a reminder that even their schoolwork was for God's glorification. Ad maiorem Dei gloriam 132.198.234.254 03:16, 21 January 2007 (UTC) CMF
Completed the bare-bones. Open to expansion.

[edit] Peter Sarsgaard?
As an alumnus, I'd like to question the validity of the claim that he went to Fairfield Prep. Can anyone provide any proof, articles, etc? If not, I will delete.
-[1]See this article. He was in the Fairfield Prep class of 1989. (-RMJ)
[edit] Former Students section
Please do not put yourself or your friend in this section just because you attend Fairfield Prep. "Former students" and "famous alumni" imply having left the school. Even if a student has done something important enough to have their name mentioned in the article, they do not belong in this section. Trad Redav 23:08, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
