11/8/2024
It's very good to be honest. Food very good and very tasty. Lessons and subjects are very easy and interesting.
9/10/2024
The community is very friendly at FVHS and the school Spirit is very high. Nothing really needs to change except that physical ID cards should be provided once again.
8/27/2024
Fountain Valley High School has a wide range of academics and excels at conjuring students with grit and hard work. I've experienced a lot of the advanced classes offered and there is a good reason each of them were so challenging. I met a lot of friends and acquaintances during my past years and had tons of fun. Sometimes, I wished the teachers of some of the AP courses would prepare me better for the AP tests. Overall, my experience in this high school has generally been positive, academic-wise.
GreatSchools Reviews

Overall, very caring, helpful teachers and principal. Admin. staff not very helpful, sometimes give attitude. College and Career counselor did not make a sincere effort to guide our daughter.
4/4/2022
terrible. parking is horrible and there are no parking permits avaliable to be sold to students and there is way too much traffic in the morning and after school. staff members are generally rude. school charges absurd amounts for everything.
8/17/2020
My daughter with special needs attended FVHS and we found the teachers, staff and administration to be excellent. The special needs supports and program was exceptional.
10/30/2018
Terrible staff members. No one helps out, especially when they are asked. Moody (female) staffs that are rude and overall the worst school. The principal and vice principals were nice and friendly, as well as the teachers.
