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.

My experience at forest park high school was difficult and easy but it was a lot of fun and we worked hard to get where we are now. At first I thought it was gonna be the worse school ever but turns out the school was actually family and the best place to send your kids. They teach you growth in yourself and also teach you responsible and leadership and commitment. I learned so much from that school thank you

I liked the teachers at forest park. I had some great teachers there and learned a lot from them. The changes I would have like to see different there is the students. They make some classes hard to learn in because they rude loud and just straight disrespectful and don't have manners at all. A lot of the students there makes the teachers quite because they can't handle them.

Forest Park High do not do very well withy the athletic programs for students. The girl and the boys basket ball team is the only team that get good uniforms. Our work out room do not have updated work out equipment . I don't attend any games because most of our athletic teams do not win . My School show little school spirit for game or other activities .
