I graduated in 2017 and I can honestly say it is a great school. Theyre constantly making improvements physically and academically, especially with partnering with local community colleges to offer college courses for credit and develop an amazing stem program.

I have two daughters that attend FCHS and their experience has been superb!! Both are enrolled in the STEM Early College Academy which will provide them the opportunity to earn an Associates Degree in Science by high school graduation. Their sophomore schedule includes the following college courses(Math 110&111, English 101&102, Biology 205) and AP US History.

FCHS is a poorly run school that lacks in all areas except sports. As a former teacher, I saw students struggle after graduation in colleges and even a former valedictorian was not able to maintain an acceptable average in their first year of college. Arts programs are not funded and academics in most areas are fair to poor.
