Fountain Central High School is the larger, more traditional high school in the area, with 508 students. It has a graduation rate of 88.4% and a student-to-teacher ratio of 12:1.

The school's ILEARN proficiency rates across English Language Arts, Math, and Science are also generally below state averages, indicating potential areas for academic focus. The school spends $13,441 per student and has a free/reduced lunch rate of 52.76%.
In contrast, Southeast Fountain Virtual Academy is a much smaller school with only 13 students and a student-to-teacher ratio of 7.1:1. It reports a higher free/reduced lunch rate at 61.54%. The virtual academy shows a striking anomaly in its SAT performance for the 2024-2025 school year, with a 100% proficiency in Evidence-based Reading and Writing but a 0% proficiency in Mathematics. This is a significant departure from its previous year's performance and warrants further investigation, as it may not be representative of a consistent trend. Both schools share a chronic absenteeism rate of 17.8%.
