Fruita Monument High School is a high school located in Fruita, Colorado, just a few miles from Colorado National Monument. It is part of the Mesa County Valley School District 51.
As of 2006, Fruita Monument enrolls about 1750 students. It is one of the largest high schools in the Grand Valley, as well as one of the highest performing academically in the area.

The student-teacher ratio is approximately 22:1.
Fruita Monument receives new students primarily from its two feeder schools, Fruita Middle School (in Fruita) and Redlands Middle School (in the Redlands of Grand Junction). These two feeder schools are nearly 20 miles apart, and are significantly different. Fruita is known as a small farming community, while the Redlands is a larger, more urbanized area. These differences create a diversity at Fruita Monument that is unique to other schools in the region. Recently an 8th and 9th grade school known as the Fruita 8/9 School was built to handle the growing number of students from the Redlands and Fruita.
