I started going here in the 7th grade and people were nothing but welcoming. I greatly enjoyed my time performing in the band and competing in football and weightlifting. Many people complain but I really enjoy going here.

I went to FMSHS for my whole high school experience and it was over a good one for me. I met many great Educators and peers who i am still in contact with today. My education was well taken care of by the staff at this school and i would highly recommend it to anyone who lives in the area .

FMSHS is a fabulous school with a great faculty and a wonderful support staff. The most understanding and caring staff that a parent could ask for for their children. The dedicated professionals give these students a top level education and prepare them for the world ahead.
