We love it here, I love the School and the environment, and my daughter's teacher was very helpful with schoolwork. My daughter also says that the girls here are much nicer than those at the other St. John's school she previously attended. That is the reason why I give 5 stars. All of the staff are friendly, and my daughter is insanely happy here.

Diverse yes... accepting no. A lot of racism within students.. bullying/racism/fights/ignorant staff.. Seems to be the norm attitude in St johns... if middle school aged kids can be this narrow minded, what will they grow up to be.. lack of education and discipline at home I guess...

The academics are very engaging. I believe that there are some teachers who try very hard to give their students the best opportunity although many teachers are not very kind about deadlines.

Probably the worst school my kids have ever been to. They do not care about the students in any way shape or matter. Don't truly wish to resolve matters that come up. Took my student out, would never recommend to anyone.

I was an old student from Fruit Cove Middle School 5-6 years ago. I absolutely despised going to that school due to the relentless bullying and harassment from the students and from some of the staff as well. The food was also… questionable… and the school layout seemed prison-like. That school is n...

The past three years at this school have been incredibly challenging for my child. I am relieved that there are only six weeks remaining in the school year. The persistent bullying from students, coupled with the authoritarian attitudes exhibited by some teachers and administrators, is truly horribl...

Coming from New England, I’ve realized how lacking Florida schools are. It’s no wonder why the literacy rate in Florida is 7th -8th grade level. Fruit Cove MS has a deficit of adequately qualified teachers and I’m mortified by the low expectations. Test scores here are shameful compared to most stat...
