Forest Charter High school is an amazing school that sets students up for success. Forest charter has an amazing, supportive staff that are involved with the students and their families. Unfortunately we are unable to play any sports through forest charter as of this last year but never the less I still love this school very much.
2/10/2022
it is like a college prep school. I like the flexibility of the schedule to pursue other things or work.
5/2/2018
It's very easy to do independent school work if you play sports. You're not stuck on campus all day and everybody is really friendly. You have the choice to double up on work and graduate early. It's very interactive and small, making it feel like a nice community of people.

Forest Charter School does a great job of customizing learning for students as individuals. FCS Truckee treats students with respect and courtesy and actively guide students in becoming stewards of and for their community.
