Homestead has home in its name for a reason. My son came here in 1st grade. The staff, teachers and administration are the best. There are many ways to get involved through the PTA. I would highly recommend this school.

With 4 kids going through this school, I was really satisfied. The honors programs are great, but watch out for math. Honors Algebra II was more difficult for my kids than calculus. Cross country was great and full of good kids. The baseball program is not good which has been true for awhile. I've seen many good players quit. If you've watch the movie Moneyball where Billy Bean talks with the scouts, I picture a lot of that going on with players.

By the way a Past student here. So, I attended there until the 8th grade. I would say the school was fine, I didn't really get that much homework really, well, sometimes which was annoying and stressful. But anyway, the teachers were good some were nice, kind, respectful, supportive, etc. While, others were scary, mean, and would yell at a student across the cafeteria because they were either: throwing trash, going to another friends table (just to talk to them) etc. So, some negative stuff here: 1. (Some) Rules in the cafeteria were a little too strict 2. Some teachers were scary, mean, or just a bad teacher altogether 3. BRING BACK THE SNACK LINE (THEY GOT CLOSED BECAUSE OF COVID NOT SURE IF IT'S OPEN NOW OR NOT) IT WAS AMAZING IT HAD ICE CREAM and finally, 4. Sometimes drama/fights would happen sometimes (I saw them happening in the Cafeteria like 3 times?) and I would say that's it!! :))
