I am excited to share with the community that Fountain Hills High School received an "A" letter grade from the Arizona Department of Education. FHHS was one of 45 schools that earned this distinction, out of 189 comprehensive public high schools. The letter grade is determined by a combination of graduation statistics, AzMERIT proficiency, and college and career readiness factors. The College and Career Readiness Indicator (CCRI) is critical to our letter grade determination (20%). This index looks at the number of seniors that fill out FAFSA forms, take the ASVAB exam, take AP courses, and meet cut scores on ACT and SAT exams, among other items. This is one reason it is so critical for all seniors to fill out a FAFSA application. The competition of these forms provide students financial opportunities, while helping our school's letter grade distinction. 

I am so proud of our students and staff for their amazing efforts to help FHHS be a Campus of Champions in the classroom, the athletic realm, and in the community. We have made significant growth academically with our partnership with Beyond Textbooks and the interventions we have implemented. Please take a moment to congratulate your children on representing our high school in such a positive way.
