This school does not care about its students. A school of this size and with the types of students attending should be upper tier but its mismanagement by the school board brings down the students who should be the focus being that it is a school.

The biggest mistake of my life was choosing to go to Fort Lee High School. I had options to go to many other catholic/private schools in the area, but I decided that FLHS was a better choice for me, but they have done nothing but ruin my entire high school career. They do not want to deal with the kids

All they do is try to help out the kids that are already doing well. There is an absolute lack of commincation between head administrators, teachers, and guidance counslers. For example, absenses may be excused, but the teacher's will not be informed of it, so they will drop you anyway. Over all, worst school in the area. Definitely went downhill. Read less

I am a recent alumnus of this school, and I have to say things are getting a little hectic. The quality of the education is very good, we have a wide choice of classes to choose within our interest and it is very easy to form a bond with most teachers. Bullying is very little problem, it is taken care
... Read more of quite well. There are many after school activates to choose from and you can be involved in many. The only problem is our safety rules. It's growing quite hectic. The IDs we wear around our necks is one thing but locking us out of the school during lunch (even in snow), not allowing us to carry backpacks, and even trying to force uniforms upon us- a public school!- is highly unnecessary in our fairly high class society. The school is starting to feel like a prison. Glad I'm done before it gets worse!! Also, for those interest, the school is quite overcrowded. Read less

We are now four years in the Fort Lee School system. I have two children enrolled. We left 8 years of catholic school in Palisades Park, and transferred to Fort Lee. It is the best decision we ever made. My children were so behind academically compared to the public schools here at Fort Lee. The

The music director Harry Welte does outstanding work with children at a High School level. They are capable of greater venues than a playing field or school auditorium. They haven't been to Disney in 6 years, and they greatly deserve this experience. It is an honor to have a child that is part of such a wonderful organization. The Board of Education should be commended for having this on their curriculum. Utilize them more. Read less
