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.

Fruitdale is an amazing school but there are some things that could be fixed. For instance and better teaching staff. There are two teachers that actually teaches the students and help with work. They could also use a better counselor that will actually help students apply for colleges and help them get an early acceptance.

My school is a great little country school. We don't have to worry about safety and we get an award every year for being one of the best schools in the U>S.A. Every year all of our Seniors pass the EXIT EXAM. GO PIRATES!
