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 was a new student at Fairhope high school my sophomore year of high ! I was met with warm words and acceptance until I met the students and teachers . Cliques and snobs but I've luckily found some great people . Fairhope gave me some great academic advances and also messed up my transcript as a new student , Thanks for the bare minimum . Not to mention , the broad racism & favortism , that goes around entirely ! Fairhope made my high school experience 10 times harder than it had to be

I really enjoy Fairhope High School because I was raised in Fairhope. I grew up living here and I immediately fell in love with Fairhope. I love each teacher and the administrators in our department. Everyone is always kind and welcoming. The students are what you figure: teenagers. Some are nicer than others but we are all just trying to be done with high school.

We were not impressed with the schools where we lived and when we moved to Fairhope we researched everything about Fairhope High School. After a year of them in this school, we have dete...

My children have excelled in this school and the class offerings are diverse and academically challenging. The electives and extracurricular activities provided are well balanced and lets students bring out their assets. Like most schools in AL, sports programs are treated with the utmost importance...

Office ladies are terrible and unorganized, janitors are EXTREMELY rude, school spends all it's money on sports (mainly football) rather than on academic or building concerns. Some bathroom stalls also don't have locks that function properly to the point that they may as well not be there at all (gi...
