Fairfax High School is located not too far from Hollywood Blvd. and Highland if you like to walk. I have walked to the school from The Chinese Theatre in about 45 minutes. If you feel like riding a city bus, the #217 bus on Hollywood Blvd. going West turns left (South) on Fairfax. You will want to get off at Melrose. As of this writing the bus ride will cost $1.35 or if you want to take buses to several places while you are visiting, you can buy tokens at a price of 10 for $9.00.

Tokens are sold at some souvenir stands and at check cashing places. The tokens are good for both Metro Rail subway stations and they can be used on buses.

Fairfax High School had many "celebrity" graduates including Mickey Rooney, Ricardo Montalban, Phil Spector and Demi Moore "dropped in" and then "dropped out."

Fairfax High School is actually not located in Hollywood but it is close enough to be in the general area. It is near CBS TV Center and Farmer's Market.
