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 LOVED Fruit Cove MS! I'm only a sophomore in high school now, but this school really molded me into the person I am today. The counselors were very helpful and the principal was the best!

I think this school is pretty good. Pretty much every staff member here greets you in the morning by your first name. They do it to make sure everyone gets recognized. The students are also accepting of most students, the teachers are super caring and help with our work, and the school is much nicer than any other school that I've been too. I can't wait for my sister to go here. I think she's going to feel welcomed here.

This place is a glorified prison. Maybe prison food is better than the hockey pucks they call cheeseburgers. Not allowed to stand up at lunch? If you have gym and then have to walk all the way across the school to your next class and are 20 seconds late, you can get a referral. We couldn’t choose ou...
