3/28/2025
I went into this high school, intimidated and scared out of my mind, to actually be growing up. And I dont think I'll ever not be scared of growing up. However, going here has taught me a lot of great things that were necessary in the real world. For example, time management to pack my own lunch instead of eating the shcool, or growing the confidence to ask a teacher for help when I was anxious or shy. This high school has brought out a lot in me, and sure, there were definitely ups and downs like them accidentally buying too many chromebooks to where they had to lay off teachers. But overall, I think if administration somewhat changes as per the students request and fits better for their needs, I think the school will do better. Shout out to FVMUN, love that program. We went to NYC in March for NHSMUN and we won a delegation award in Merit for Service and Advocacy.

I have thoroughly enjoyed my years at Fountain Valley High School. The best part was taking classes and participating in all the fun events my school hosted, such as Homecoming and Prom. The worst part of my experience was probably the cafeteria food, but overall, it wasn't a major focus for me. I do wish they would add more food options for vegetarians, especially since I am vegan for more than half the year.

FVHS is a great school, they work to unite us as a student body and make the learning and presence environment a good place to be in. Everyone feels safe and that they can get the education they need at a high school level.

Overall, very caring, helpful teachers and principal. Admin. staff not very helpful, sometimes give attitude. College and Career counselor did not make a sincere effort to guide our daughter.
4/4/2022
terrible. parking is horrible and there are no parking permits avaliable to be sold to students and there is way too much traffic in the morning and after school. staff members are generally rude. school charges absurd amounts for everything.

My daughter with special needs attended FVHS and we found the teachers, staff and administration to be excellent. The special needs supports and program was exceptional.
10/30/2018
Terrible staff members. No one helps out, especially when they are asked. Moody (female) staffs that are rude and overall the worst school. The principal and vice principals were nice and friendly, as well as the teachers.
