The school does have several issues with bullying, lack of supervision. Do not really care about special education an D.C. the well being of the special education students.

This is the worst school I have ever been to. We have school threats often, the school is filthy and we have students having sex in the bathrooms. Lots of drug use, The worst "Administration" ever not believing in victims of sexual assault or assault in general. Not doing anything about it. Short staffed. We do not feel safe in this school. Unless things change in the school we never will. School fights break out often. We fear coming to school a place where we should only be worried about learning.

This school is a joke. Can’t register your student until 8am. Sorry but parents have jobs to get to . You should have someone there at 7am. Since the school is open at that time. This school and district don’t care about your students at all.

My son is in the IB program and it's by far the worst mistake I've made. All these teachers do is give them a ton full of homework and let them drown in it with no support. I asked for a meeting with the IB counselor in the beginning of the 2020 school year with no response. Forgot about athletics if your in this program because the coaches do not care and expect you to be at the practices

Overall my experience at this school has been pretty well. I will be graduating May 2019 and will say the academics portion of this school is strong. However, as a hardworking athlete, I must say the boys and girls tennis team is amazing. Coach Darren Holt and Coach Rachel Holt do everything in their power to make each individual athlete develop not only as a player but as a person as well. I highly recommend the experience of being able to be on a team with such knowledgeable and professional Coaches. Be sure to prepare to work hard!!

Good school, proactive (sometime too much) parents and engaged teachers.

The majority of the teachers are nice and they try to support the students when they needed and school installations are fine.

Terrible. The staff is the worst in Osceola County. Dean Mr. Munoz never answers the calls of the parents. Personally I was calling him for two months and never answered a single call. The school does not guarantee student safety. Words spoken by Mr. Munoz. Today there was a fight of great magnitude where you see how they hit several students. There is no security. In general it is one of the worst school, even if it is located in a rich city

terrible. most of the students are spanic, not descriminating or anything, but that school basically speaks spanish. i'm from Brazil and doing exchange in this school, and honestly, I've learned more spanish. These kids are as well disrespectful and fights almost everyday. Did not have a good experience.

Celebration High School is a pretty good school, some teachers are AMAZING, others not so much. I feel like a teacher and a student should have a friendly connection because when you enter the classroom you don't feel like a teacher is teaching you, you feel as if someone you have known for a really long time is teaching and that's what being a teacher is all about but god damn some teachers are just plain horrible. First day of school my math teacher said " I am not your friend, i am your teacher, don't come to me with your personal life and if you're having trouble at home go to guidance don't come to me" I literally got up from my desk and left the room. Some teachers shouldn't be teachers, simple as that.

This is an Excellent school. It's hard to find a principal as caring and involved with the students as our new principal, Mr. Lisby. I have had kids enrolled in this school since 2006 and am happy to say that from the beginning they have been challenged with a multitude of AP classes, enabling them to be competitive and get into top tier universities. I have witnessed graduates getting accepted in the best schools in the country. This school offer the IB program, AVID, a Biomedical Program, Duel Enrollment as well as 5 different academies within the school. The students can even walk away from graduation with a Microsoft Certification. There are many opportunities for parents to become involved and in my experience the teachers are always appreciative.

Horrible staff, completely distracted with their own lives and do not care about the students. This school actually lost my child! If a child shows up at a school office with a suitcase, you do not offer to call him/her a taxi to the airport. You call their parents!!!! To actually make it where my child would rather run away than attend this school is insane. Only spanish is spoken here, if you or your child doesn't speak it, do not enroll them. Not a learning environment for children who already speak english.

I'm an IB graduate at this school, so I can tell you a few things about this school. It's a nice school but there really is nothing special or unique about it. The staff is average, principal okay, and IB program is actually subpar compared to the other IB school in the county (much better trust me). The options that this school provides to its students is also subpar. The experience is, in the end, satisfactory at the most. Though it has the name of "Celebration", bearing the "prestige" of the town, this school is as good as the others in Osceola County - which is not a compliment. If your child is choosing between this schools IB and Gateway's IB - choose Gateway. PS Our football sucks.

No matter what anyone says, I had the best four years of my life in this school. If students come into this shool willing to do their best, and instead of complain, learn to immerse themselves in the education it offers, they will have no problem. I can honestly say this school did it's best, and coming from harsh background such as mine, I was able to fully appreciate it's quality and mostly warm atmophere. I can say my only regrets are the never changing negative attitudes of most of my school mates, and how I didn't take full advantage of all the club, school activities, and athletic teams it easily offered us.

If I could give it zero stars I would. The staff at this school is horrible, mainly the people in the office. As a student, they made me feel very unwelcome. They were consistently rude and unhelpful. I felt very harassed as well. There was one instance where I had a problem with another student, and they did nothing to help, in fact they made the situation worse. A majority of the students are very stuck up as well. However, there are a few genuinely good teachers that seem to care about the students. But overall, I do not recommend attending this school.
