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.

My experience in robert fulton college preparatory has been good, The teacher's are nice and help us a lot, Specially the councilors. i've been an 4.0 student since first semester and i wouldn't say that it was easy but it wasn't that hard either. Maybe because the teacher teach the lesson clearly as long as you pay attention. Being in this school thought me a lot of things, the only hard part was getting involved on certain activities because sometimes there would be events that i would have loved to experience but didn't get informed by it. I enjoyed most of my time in fulton and hoped that all the enjoyment would continue.

The best part of this school was the trust staff had with me I was apart of leadership and I would always be around campus helping my teachers , staff and students. The worst parts would probably be the lack of AP classes and art classes. I would like to see more art classes like ceramics or pottery.

My experience at Fulton was good because to me I did get to learn more about myself but in reality what really made me stay at the school was the people I was going through a lot in last few years and my teachers never made me feel alone, when I tried they never left me alone or made me feel alone even when I didn't want to talk they never left my side until I felt better and to my friends I met good people with good hearts and my teachers

But there is some bad things about this school like too much f...

Fulton Fight Club is poorly supervised, students leave the campus at will. Fulton sent police & DCFS to my house, even though he was beaten up at school.

We need a lot of work here at fulton, academic wise and fundamental. I kept my kids in fulton middle because we have had a couple of great teachers. Some teachers are still there for the kids and not a paycheck but there's a lot to be done. I've attended a couple of the workshop that show the alignm...

The school is run down. Students are just hanging out on the yard during class time and no one is watching them. The principal is no where to be seen and there is no security for this middle/high school. Teachers are grouchy and impatient. The students look board during class time there is obviously...
