3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageBoth of my children attended this school, both middle and high. The school has a small town vibe to it and the staff seems to know most of the students. Like any school it has its issues but you can see that the principal and staff are working hard to improve the school. They have a student/teacher liaison which is critical for students as it offers them someone to talk to and advocate for them. The football and basketball team are top notch. The football team has won the State Championship several times. The school also takes advantage of the proximity of UF and Santa Fe community college to offer the high school students unique opportunities. The agriculture program is unique and interesting. Overall, I think the teachers and staff care about the students and want to see them succeed. Both my children enjoyed their time there.Parent Review1y ago - Chester Shell Elementary School
