The school itself is relatively safe. For being so small and in a rural area, it offers good education and participation activities for multiple kinds of students. I wish it had more options for classes, though.

My best experience in Fort Cherry High School would have to be having so many opportunities from AP classes. For example, if you paid for the CHS portion of AP Bio with Pitt, you could do an on-campus college-level lab where we got to extract DNA from food and test if it was genetically modified. My worst experience would have to be finding inappropriate items in the hallways and bathrooms. Even to the point, lockers had moldy food and drinks in them for an entire school year.

Fort Cherry is a great school & I have enjoyed my time here. It is a close community and everyone supports each other. The teachers are always available to help. I will miss Fort Cherry, but am looking forward to college.

This place is truly horrible. About 1/3 of the teachers could not care less and administration would rather pad their egos than help their students. Administration has very little knowledge of disability law and some teachers and admin are very rude when it comes to disabled students, specifically i...

This School is a joke, don't get me wrong... MOST of the teachers and faculty are great, but the school's coach's, curriculum, food, and classes are a joke.
2/5/2015
I love attending FC! The small nature of the school allows for teachers to work with students who need help individually. There are a vast range of courses and clubs, especially for a school of this size. I wouldn't want to go anywhere else!
