Just more student roles so that everyone can be included. More opportunities for students to be a part of the community and play a role in bringing it to life.

Frederick High School is a great school to find an inclusive environment where there is something for everyone. I feel like I have many people I can turn to for college advice and the counseling team is great. Frederick High offers many dual enrollment and AP classes which provides a good environment for students who want to be challenged.

I think FHS is a good example of a typical high school that you would see in a movie. The building is picturesque and impressive to a degree with its high ceilings, skylights, and grandiose auditorium but other than that it's entirely average.
