This school is terrible. Its a nightmare. I wish that Orange County would surprise this school to catch them in the act. Or question the kids about there teachers. I have 3 kids at this school different ages and they all tell me the same thing. The teachers don't teach they don't care and they spend the day speaking about there lives. One English teacher spends the day on twitter and facebook. If you have a child with a learning disability do not place them in this school! Please it would be the worst mistake you have ever made. My daughter has an IEP and I am a very committed parent but when the staff isn't. You have a problem.
wow I know every one has different experiences but this school is horrible. With a very few exceptions the school's staff is horrid. The teachers are irresponsible, unprofessional, again with a few exceptions. My children have never had issues with instructors and I can name a few in this school that think they are teenagers themselves. Getting into childrens faces, screaming at them and rolling there eyes. But most of the schools in this area are similar. Nightmares! If your kid is thinking of attending this school, run! The student have wonderful school spirit but the staff is just terrible. With a few exceptions. The schoo offers alot of nice programs but the quality of education is bad!
I worked at this school and will never recommend it as a job or a school for a student to attend. They only REALLY care about their yearly ratings so that they can make extra $$ and the principal is about to retire soon so if she continues to have her school as a B school she will get a nice bonus at the end...Not once did she interact with me during the time I worked for her not even a hello
Photography art teacher is unprofessional with how she manages classroom, and unethical when it comes to level of professionalism as an art educator, does not follow the accomplished practices of Florida State Standards, and leaves kids alone in classroom.
I am a proud graduate of this high school! This school has great programs such as IB and AVID. They offer mid-Florida tech and Dual Enrollment programs. They have a great athletic and performing arts department. I would be lying if I said you would not come across some under qualified teachers, but what public school is perfect. CCHS is pretty close!!
I have 2 sons attending this school, a junior and a freshman. I have found the teachers to be very involved in the students progress. The school offers not only the IB program and AP classes, but the arts department is amazing as well. This is a very large high school, but the principal has done a phenomenal job maintaining order and in communicating with parents and students. A lot has to do with parental involvement, of course, but I highly recommend this school.
This school is absolutely atrocious. There are so many things to be done, and they never get done. I can't even tell you how many times I've had to go down to the school myself to get something straightened out (in reference to my daughter's schedule or anything else). A proper school would not function this way.
I have been a parent involved in this school since it opened in 1992 and have found it to be one of the best kept secrets in Orlando. Although it is predominantly a minority school, there is no suggestion of it being less than others. The teachers have been wonderful to work with and when some students struggle with reading or math, there is always an adult to bolster them up, teach them, help. It is no surprise to me that it got a B this year.
I just transfered out of this school. And I am sooo happy that I did. Now that I go somewhere where we actually learn things I can honestly see why Ieft. This school is dirty and theres fights every 2 seconds. I highly recommend you choose somewhere else. I don't know who is writing these review because there certainly not people that go there. Even my friends all hate it.
It's amazing because of the people in it and the teachers really care about what their doing.
