GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I started going here in the 7th grade and people were nothing but welcoming. I greatly enjoyed my time performing in the band and competing in football and weightlifting. Many people complain but I really enjoy going here.

I went to FMSHS for my whole high school experience and it was over a good one for me. I met many great Educators and peers who i am still in contact with today. My education was well taken care of by the staff at this school and i would highly recommend it to anyone who lives in the area .

Frostproof high school isn't the best for me. I personally prefer a school that is Christian and not filled with disrespectful students at every corner. There are some teachers there that make my time enjoyable while others not so much. Overall, I'm ready to graduate and move on to the next.

The year before a girl was attacked and filed battery against another student, the school was to...

FMSHS is a fabulous school with a great faculty and a wonderful support staff. The most understanding and caring staff that a parent could ask for for their children. The dedicated professionals give these students a top level education and prepare them for the world ahead.
