I love Foley High School. It is a great place to be! FHS has won the Baldwin County United Way award 10 years in a row for giving more than any other school per capita in the school district. That's huge seeing that we aren't a rich school. We are giving!

I've been here for two years, I myself have not had problems but I've noticed several of the problems around me.

Foley has been a great school to attend. I am now a senior and my teachers have been awesome all four years. I have never had a single issue with the administration and am thankful to have attended this high school instead of going to IB at Fairhope.

There are teachers and coaches at Foley that slander students and defame their character. As a teacher and coach, you would think they would mentor and lift up the kids. They might as well be teenagers themselves because the way they gossip about students is not how adults act. I have young kids and they will NEVER attend Foley High. No wonder some students are depressed and down on themselves. How is a student expected to succeed and push through high school when faculty treats them just as their peers. They pick and choose who they like, and if you are not chosen they could care less about your well being. (Not saying all of them do, but there are a select few that have done this to a family member over and over). I would also like to add that this family member was a student athlete, good grades, not a trouble maker, not on drugs or alcohol. The words and actions of these coaches and teachers did send my family member into depression...so you tell me if you would trust them being around your child.They constantly picked on her and to this day talk about her around other students in public. Shame on you Foley High for not being mentors and uplifting ALL students!

Foley high school expects very little of their student. Coaches who teach are a complete joke. When they get good teachers, they fire them before they are tenured and replace them with less experienced teachers to save money. It's truly a joke.

Foley is the largest school in Baldwin County and has many programs for the students to be involved in. The band may be best in the state and the FFA is a top notch program with programs from public speaking to veterinarian science. Not to mention a number of athletic programs and clubs.

I currently attend Foley High School & if i could go to another school i would. They have to many students, the classes are to large, & the hallways are to crowed. They also have a bad bullying problem, and they fail to see it. They spend to much time worrying about what students are wearing rather then teaching. I also attended Gulf Shores a few years back, & i have to say Foley is better then Gulf Shores.

I currently attend Foley High Schools, and as far as high schools go I consider it one of the best out there. The principals are wonderful with both discipline and connecting with the kids. Most of the counselors are great as well. The only issue is class size, but the teachers are pretty good at accommodating the large classes (the 16 people per teacher is a lie, its more like 30 per teacher). If you get involved with something like the band, which I HIGHLY SUGGEST THE BAND, you are sure to make friends and have a good experience. Most of the kids are pretty nice and laid back, and it isn't a very cliche-y school unlike other schools in the district *cough* Fairhope and Daphne *cough*. Students tend to accept other students and there is a very diverse student body. I really love this school and would suggest it to anyone.

We are a Military family. We love the school and the fact that there are uniforms is just icing on the cake. We have not had any trouble with teachers here and one of my boys has aspergers. He is doing really well here. they even have a free after school program called Project Rise. They get help with homework at Project Rise and then they do fun stuff like hip hop, self defense, learn to cook, arts and crafts and archery
