Read what parents are saying about Wekiva High Schoolhere's my honest review: wekiva is an alright school with a lot of underlying issues- it is what you make of it. there is a noticeable disconnect when it comes to communication, but if you are an involved parent there shouldn't be any problems (just don't expect to get newsletters and emails from admin). the administration could use a lot of work, as the staff itself isn't bad, they just continue to implement policies and rules that do more harm than good for the students. teachers are great on occasion, and i have been lucky to have some incredible ones. there is a big issue when it comes to work and the actual education that the students are receiving- the administration seems to only care about test scores and the school's overall grade. students are being taught how to pass tests, not how to study and actually do well in whatever skills they should be learning. there is a massive issue regarding the curriculum; some teachers really just do not focus on teaching as much as they do passing their students. there have also been multiple times where a student has had a concern or issue and brought it to admin (bullying mainly) and it was brushed aside or dealt with in a really ineffective way- EG the student gets in trouble for bringing their concerns. HOWEVER, if you or your child actually want to succeed; they won't have issues. if you actually want to go to a great college, the staff can and will prepare you for that. if you want to be a part of sports or one of the magnet programs, you can and will succeed there. wekiva as an institution gets a bad rep, and that's fine. but the students are trying, they're not doing too bad, and it isn't fair to judge them based of the actions of the staff and how the school is run.
Posted by a community member on 3/30/2022Teachers are so unprofessional, they cuss at the students and kick them out sometimes for no reason. They have to follow silly rules, the teachers in general are just so terrible. There are alot of fights and too many disrespectful students.
Posted by a student on 3/23/2022Admin are clueless and insufferable. New staff every year, but still the same issues remain. The new staff always worse than the other
Posted by a student on 10/1/2021Wekiva has some of the worst administration in Florida, feels more like a prison than a learning environment.

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageBeautiful new school! The remodel was a long time overdue. I feel absolutely wonderful sending my child there everyday. The staff is one of the hardest working staff I have ever met. The school is very pleasant and they listen to my concerns when need be. I am very proud of the fact my child will attend this school from Pre-K all the way to 5th.Parent Review8y ago - Lakeville Elementary School

N/AGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI made the decision to enroll my daughter at Radiant Life Academy and it one if the best decisions I ever made. The teachers have a genuine interest in their student's success. The Principal is a great example of one who is serving in her purpose. She has a genuine love for the students. I was picking up my daughter one afternoon over the summer break and I asked how things were going with summer school, she began to tell me all that the students were doing, with a light in her eyes that was just amazing to watch. Some teachers were born and I believe she is one of those born for the purpose of empowering the next generation. If you are searching for a place where your child/children will be nurtured physically, emotionally and spiritually, then Radiant Life Academy is a great place to consider. I would give 10 stars if it were possible. Thank you Radiant Life.Grateful parentParent Review8mo ago - A Book's Christian Academy
