We are a small school with teachers who care deeply for our students and work their hardest to nurture them for the opportunities that await them after graduation.

We foster a college-going culture and provide a great deal of support to our students for college and career readiness. In choosing FHS, you are choosing to join a dynamic learning community, to think deeply about yesterday, today, and tomorrow, and to envision how to make a positive difference in the world. |
