Fraser Public Schools educates about 5,200 students. The majority of students were categorized as white, followed by black, with only 1–2% of the students Asian, Pacific Islander or Hispanic. By gender, the school district has a fairly even number of male and female students.
Classrooms in Fraser Public Schools are equipped with Promethean Boards (interactive whiteboards) and ActivExpressions (student response clickers). During the 2012–2013 school year, Fraser Public Schools completed the largest iPad deployment in Michigan and deployed 5,000 iPads to students. The high school currently offers virtual and hybrid classes. Fraser Public Schools also partners with Rochester College, offering college courses at no cost to Fraser High School students on the campus of FHS.
Beginning in the 2016–2017 school year, Fraser Public Schools began offering an early release option for juniors and seniors at Fraser High School. If students meet academic and disciplinary guidelines, they are permitted to leave the school campus early each day. This seat-time waiver was made possible through the Michigan Department of Education's Innovation Council and approval from State Superintendent Brian Whiston.
In 2013 Fraser Public Schools was recognized as one of the best Communities for Music Education in the country by the NAMM Foundation. The Fraser High School Music Department annually competes in Heritage Music Festivals around the country, receiving invitations to the Festivals of Gold.
