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.

The teachers are pretty difficult but if you work hard and stay on top of your work then everything will be fine. The people here are outrageously competitive academically and show their true colors. They are strict about the wrong things like walking in the hallways with your friends or going to the bathroom for too long, but aren't strict about things like the dress code. Overall it isn't a bad school and most of its students do end up successful.

I did not attend Fort Lee High School for all 4 years. I transferred to Fort Lee High School during my junior year. For the time that I was in Fort Lee High School, my overall experience was pretty different. Fort Lee High School was very inclusive, active in the community, and more, however, they did not like to try many different things. I would like to see the diversity change. I loved being surrounded by different cultures, but it tended to sometimes make me feel less than.

Teachers are nice. Main problems come from guidance counselors and admin. Some of the guidance counselors do not care about students at all, and show extreme favoritism. This school does nothing about bullying and harassment even with several witness reports from both students and faculty.

It is concerning to see that school leadership does not provide quality teaching materials for teachers and hold extremely low expectations for students. The school does not have strong math, technology curriculum. The future jobs are in those fields and doubt that the school is equipped to prepare...
