I recently changed schools and, my son ended up here. As I've noticed in Florida school system everything on the outside can look great but we send off our children for 6+ hours a day and leave them there not knowing what truly happens behind closed doors. My son has stated numerous times his teacher yells in class. Kids are ripping things off walls ,yelling themselves etc. My child has had problems numerous times with other children and anyone outside the Teacher. I.e . Principal must not truly find much interest in caring more for child's needs. I see a bunch of pictures of principal and students but, my experience I could barely get a response for a meeting time. Not a Great school and not a fan of Florida public schools they seem pretty ridiculous to me!

As an 8th grader about to graduate I would not recommend attending this school. They treat the kids there horribly and don’t care much about them. There are fights every other day. and the teachers there do not know how to control the kids, because of that most classes are often out of control and I end up getting headaches almost every day. The administration scream at us through the microphone and blow whistles at us like we’re in prison, and most of the time it’s because we don’t have our feet under the tables. It doesn’t help that some of the administration have very high pitched voices, so It gives me a headache every time they do it. They really don’t care about bullying and sexual assault that much and the people who do it get no punishment. This has happend to several of my friends and the people who assaulted them had no punishment. And the food is awful, when I was in 6th grade I got a peach from the cafeteria and when I opened it up it was rotten and moldy in the inside. I have also walked into kids vaping in the bathroom several times and nothing had been done about it. I do not recommend sending your child here.

I’ve never seen so many kids dropping out of a School because of Bullying. The Principal and/or Staff have effectively turned the School over to the students who think it’s okay to harass and assault other kids that don’t fit into their Social Clicks. I’m going to be pursuing this further with the Govenors office in Tallahassee.
