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.

Fort Hill High school focuses a lot on sports and the sciences. They could focus on the arts and music more. The violence in that school needs to be contained. During my experience, fights would break out and that disrupts class time. Helping that cause could include more anger management programs.

In my experience at Fort Hill High School I have loved the environment and the people surrounding me. There is a lot of great people and amazing teachers. The programs here are amazing but I would love to see a little more given to the music programs and the mentally challenged children who deserve more than we give them.

I have been enrolled at Fort hill High School since my freshman year. I am now a senior. My experience at Fort Hill High School is going to be unforgettable. With my senior year coming to an end, it is very sad and emotional. The sports programs are amazing and many students are involved in extra curricular activities within my school. It is a great place to be and you'll see so many smiles.
I have 3 children at Fort Hill. My son played football and my daughters are in the band. They are all 3 involved in other activities as well; tennis, drama, choir, wrestling, mock trial, science bowl, environmental bowl, etc.. You get out what you pit in. But over half the football team has a 3.8 or...
Fort Hill is either about sports or the band and if you aren't in either than you are considered a nobody in the school. Which was a reason why I left after 10th grade and went to a different school. The school itself has the worst reputation in the county and if you say you go there, you are looked...
