Nature Coast Technical High School

My son is currently a senior at NCTHS in the IT cluster and has done very well there. I believe his education at NCTHS has prepared him well for college. I am pleased to report that he was recently accepted at St Leo University. I am so glad we chose this school for him.

I graduated from Nature Coast Tech H.S. in 2008 and I can honestly say that although the school got in a lot of messes with their athletic department, I learned a lot academically. I was in the Health and Human service Cluster and in my senior year I decided to change to T.V. Production. Having the option of the T.V. Production cluster helped me realize what I wanted to do with my future, and I m currently attending a 4 year college studying communications. I have to thank NCT for offering the classes that opened my eyes up to what I truly have passion for. Yes, the school is receiving a lot of negative media right now, but I wouldn t have enjoyed my time at any other high school. While I attended the school it was still new only been open one year prior to my attendance, and having the options of this school helped prevent my parents from sending me to the Catholic high school. I recommend this school to anyone and I still talk about it with high regards to their academics, not just their athletics.

My daughter is a senior this year and transferred to that school from East lake in her junior year. She has been doing great at Nature Coast .. Seems to be a lot less drama and more attention to academics . Love the scheduling of classes as even and odd days . Other schools by the time you get into the lesson time is up . This way the classes are longer and you have less of them on a daily basis.. Great school .

Our experience with Nature Coast has been exceptional. With the volume of students they still give the sense of individual attention and really care. 5 Star

Simply outstanding! mrs. Schoelles and the teachers really deserve all of the credit. My son just graduated and i was very pleased with his accomplishments at nchs.. I know that he will move on in his life, but one thing for sure he will always be proud to have been a nature coast shark. Thank you for giving my son the opportunity. Mrs. M.

I have a daughter that graduated from NCT last year and a son who will be a junior this coming year. I have had nothing but great experiences with this school. My daughter is now a college student attending a private nursing school. She plans to graduate in 2011 with a bachelors in nursing. Thanks to the allied health program at Nature Coast Technical HS where she was enrolled her four years there. My son is in the engineering program and is enjoying it and planning to further his education after graduation.

I am a student at NCTHS graduating this year (2009). I know there are some drawbacks, but I believe this school has some of the best faculty, and a great set of resources and statistics. I love this place, and I will def. miss it when I go to college. Great sense of school spirit, a great student body, and wonderful classes make a place where everyone would be envious if they didn't attend.

Nature Coast is a good school, but the fact that it is a newer school takes attention and students from all of the other schools in the county making Nature Coast hated by many other schools. It's supposed to be a technical school, not a private athletic school that steals all of the attention from other schools. I currently attend Hernando High School so i can't say that Nature Coast down has a bad staff or students. But everybody just gives up on their own school and goes to NCT because they don't like being at a worse school.

I have two grandaughters attending Nature Coast. What a really great school! The school spirit and sense of family is a throwback to the good old days of pep rallies and homecoming bonfires. Kudos to the great teachers that make Nature Coast the best high school in Hernando County.

I attended this school for a little while and the academics were absolutely horrible. Who would put five students trying to take an honors course into a class of 25 not trying to take an honors course? This school would. The only difference between the two was an extra paper for the honors! What good does that do? NOTHING.
