“FCS is a place where I felt comfortable and welcomed. I don’t think I would’ve had such an easy time adapting to the US if it weren’t for my very patient and forgiving teachers. One of the most memorable experiences I had at FCS was working on the yearbook during my senior year, My demographically diverse classes helped me build linguistic competence and cultural understanding, which now helps me fit in at college.”

“FCS provided so many benefits throughout my three years as an international student. I initially expected difficulty with my academics and graduation requirements, but then I realized that my teachers were dedicated to ensuring I received the help I needed in every area. My path to graduation was smooth thanks to my counselor, and I was given opportunities to participate in almost every aspect of life at the school. I’m proud to call myself an FCS graduate!”

“FCS provided me with many opportunities. I was able to graduate because of FCS. If I had not transferred to this school, I probably would not have found out about dual enrollment. Thanks to the guidance of Mr. Park and Miss Anna, I’m now navigating college smoothly.”
