in my time in this school I have seen a lot of racism and hate in this school students smoke and do drugs in the school and the staff don't try to stop it the school has a problem with fights the school is also very stingy the school is like a prison and cares about funding more than making sure the students succeed in life.

I'm sorry, but this school is just the worst I always got depressed and sad here even when I tried to be happy. This school sucks in ALL aspects

Absolutely wonderful. I can tell you that if any students are not making progress it is their own fault. My teachers work very, very hard and strongly encourage students to do their best. The problem is, I'm sorry to say, simply that most of the students don't listen to this advice. They would rather play on their phones than do any work. But the staff and administration is wonderful and thanks to them I am well on my way to becoming a teacher myself. You'll notice that all of the bad reviews are from several years ago. Between 2012 and 2014 the KISD school board and school administration instituded some ill-advised policies that led to poor student performance and behavior, including a bomb threat on the last day of school in 2014 (My teachers usually mention this time period when we ask about the weirdest thing they've seen in their career). However, the school took corrective measures the next year, including shortening the passing periods and greatly increasing campus security, and completely eradicated these problems. Fossil Ridge is a grand school, with good teachers, good administration, and, at the core, good students. Anyone who ever visited Fossil Ridge nowadays could have nothing but good things to say about it.

I have had 6 children attend Fossil Ridge High School and all six have had a marvelous experience. Three have since graduated from college and one is well on her way. Great school, great faculty and staff!

Every high school has problems, it is how they deal with it that makes it either a bad school or a good school. FRHS has amazing students who work hard to achieve success. The teachers and administration truly care about the students not just for academics but also as a person. If you rated it below 4 stars, you don't know the real FRHS.
