The school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with Fridley Moore Lk Area Learning Center, which serves a similar student population, also performing significantly worse than Fridley Senior High on standardized tests and other metrics.

Open Quote They have taught me a lot and they support everyone. The school and the staff makes us feel as one and we do things together and we all have fun. We as a school encourage each other through thick and thin no matter what. Our school is why I smile. Close Quote
