Be wary of overly negative reviews - people like to criticize. I love this school. My siblings and I all graduated from FHS and went on to receive undergrad and post graduate degrees with honors. Fulton is a special place with a faculty and staff who truly care for their students.

They do not care about your kids, the district really needs to replace the staff with someone who actually cares for kids instead of joining in the childish bullying that they allow here.

The only children safe in this school are the bullies.

locks kids in room with police when they don’t get what they want and doesn’t let your child stick up for themselves

This school is FULL of discrimination, homophobia and transphobia, against the LGBTQ+, black/minority, and trans community. This is not a safe place for your child, DO NOT SEND THEM HERE

Staff has a huge disregard for students mental health. This school is very transphobic for suspending a trans woman for standing up for herself and another woman who stood up for her. The bullies who were throwing transphobic insults never received a punishment.

My child is entering 10th grade this year. After his 9th grade , I wanted to transfer him so bad but wasn't allowed. I love him dearly, yet I know he isn't a straight A student, which is the grades he made in the 9th grade at Fulton. Study books are never allowed to go home. They use tablets now, which are fine with me; we have all the latest tech gadgets at home. Yet even when he brings the tablet home, I CAN NEVER see exactly what it is they are teaching. Most are just bullet points. They don't sent graded work home with him, so I can't see with my own eyes, what he got right or wrong on the test. I can quiz him myself on what he said he studied that day and at best, I'd give him an 80. Yet he'll bring home an "A" EVERYTIME. Parent/Teacher conferences are harder to get than free KUB. Forget about setting one of those up. He will be out of Fulton asap. I just have to somehow secure the transfer or sell my house. I am a Fulton Alumnus, class of 76 and am very fond of the school, have wonderful memories from attending and received a fine education there. Sadly I truly feel a potato can get a diploma at Fulton now though.

Well, I graduated in 1958. It was a GREAT school and many of our Classmates still get together for meals and fellowship. I learned to be respectful of others and to be a good helper of other people. 22 years in the military, 32 years at Lockheed Aircraft, 20 years Civil Air Patrol and running our Senior Center for the last 10 years. As a C.A.P. Commander, many great kids have come from our work. One of them flying 2 Space shuttles. Others Pilots, EMT's etc. We had many successful people in our class.
