I DO NOT at all recommend this school or district to anyone due to the fact my child has been here a year and has been constantly physically assaulted and verbally abused by his peers as well as the teachers. The board of education make petty excuses for its sorry as hell administration and piss poor faculty. Good luck, calling Dekalb County's Board of Education as they do not make sure all needs are up to par for the children attending this school and the bullying is extremely high and nothing gets done about it. I can only speak for myself but I am 110% over the moon to disclose my child WILL NOT be under any circumstances attending this nightmare of a school again next year. ITS ATROCIOUS ENOUGH WE ARE MOVING!

As a faculty member of Fyffe High School, I have seen the positive and negatives sides. The bottom line is that Fyffe is similar to a private school in that we know the students, and grow and change with them. Our school is well-protected by the local law enforcement. I do not feel threatened daily as others do. Students at this school are compassionate towards those with special needs. This school has a team spirit like no other, winners; however,in the classroom and the ball field! A vast majority of our students are winners in life to due their respect for others. All schools could use improvement; the main concern is a new high school building with a high school library and an auditorium with a tornado shelter for all students k-12 that is handicapped accessible. Funding needs to be provided for this. Our high school building is seventy six years old.

Fyffe School met 100% of goals set by the state and NCLB for the 2009-10 school year. We have a strong team of faculty, administrators and staff members. Fyffe was recognized by US News and World Report as one of Alabama's top 50 schools.
