Forest High School

I think the school is excellent. It gives the students the opportunities to really enter the high school responsabilities. Thou, the parents should get more involved in school activities. This way they feel that parents and school are on the same track. I know this because i'm a retired teacher and school principal. Keep up the good work for our kids.

Great team spirit in the classrooms and events!!

I am now a sophmore at FHS and its a great school and i enjoy going there. Its a huge school but very easy to get around and everyone is friendly there. All of the teachers are really nice and the sports are organized very well.

I just started at Forest High school and I have found my way around by myself. It seems just ok, not a great school, but nice, new, and some caring teachers.

For me it's one of the best here in Ocala. It is very difficult to find a good high school nowadays where you can trust that your child will be in good hands. The staff here are friendly and cooperative. I live a bit far from the school and plan in moving even farther, but my daughter says that she wants to graduate in this school and I'm going to sacrifice some gas to get her there. God bless this school!

I love FHS it is an amazing school with alot of amazing teachers,and if you stay on the honors track then you'll find alot of genuine teachers who are willing to go the extra mile so that the students will excell.

The School has a very diverse background and offers numerous programs for every kid. The ROTC program is the best we have seen and we would recommend it to anyone who is interested in their son or daughters future. Great character education and the teachers are truly devoted to their students. A+ in my opinion.

I did not have a good experience at Forest. If you want the students to learn, you should make them feel that they can be successful as anyone. It is very important to feel that you are a part of the group. I'm glad I transferred to Sandalwood. It was much better! My grades went up after that.

some teachers are very rude theres too many kids and not enough space the kids are very rude and when your a new kid they really dont care its very unwelcoming and i would NOT recommend this school!!!!!

This school is definitely for the college bound student, but all students are not created equal and neither are parents bank accounts. Create more interest in why our children lose their way and focus on things that interest them. Classes need to get into diverse cultures as well as their diverse minds. Creative minds need creative class work; Mechanical minds need mechanical methods to approach class work.
