Destin High School

School is greatly understaffed. They have one guidance counselor, one AP and one principal just like all the other schools in the district, but 1000 students instead of 500ish. They have the highest concentration of ELL students, but no ESOL teacher or extra testing coordinators. The physical building has extreme rodent issues. I also heard they’re cutting their music program. PE program is a student management nightmare. The art room was completely trashed with YEARS of clutter and garbage shoved in every corner. I saw a special needs aide ask for kisses from a student when the student was being dismissed early.. very off putting and strange. Not sure why the district is leaving this school so completely under staffed.
