I have two students at Seabreeze. Overall, their experience has been positive in both learning and social environments. Seabreeze offers many special programs (AICE Cambridge, Allied Health, Agriculture, AP courses, Arts, etc.) and has a variety of sports teams. I have been able to support my children and found that the administration and their teachers have always been helpful.

Like with every school, your experience is what you make of it. You can dwell on the things Seabreeze falls short on or focus on where they are clearly succeeding. I have a spectrum student here and while there are challenges, the entire school has been absolutely amazing with navigating his good and bad days, as well as when mama bear needs to step in and get involved on rare occasions. There has been so much acceptance within the athletic program with him and our entire family is extremely excited about all of the positive changes that are coming in that department. Academically speaking, his teachers have sometimes struggled with his accommodations, but as long as I remember they are human too and just need a reminder, it works out. The teachers really have been great, even the ones that I know can't wait for my kiddo to be out of their class, but they are all handling it with grace and the patience he needs to be successful which is all I can ask for as he really is thriving at this school and I'm so grateful for everyone there.

This school has the most incompetent staff I have ever had to deal with. It does not matter what we need we get the wrong information, the wrong books, the wrong dates etc.. etc every single time there is always an issue. I have never been so frustrated with school staff.

The school is generally okay in that its average across the board. Some teachers are wonderful while others are incredibly mediocre. There is definite favoritism amongst the administrative staff with students they befriend. The classwork differs between classes but the work ethic in the school is very lax overall.

I would give Seabreeze HS a very poor rating. My three daughters had terrible bullying experiences that were never addressed.

God awful experience. I learned pretty much nothing, yet somehow this is one of the better schools in Florida? I can't imagine what the actual bad schools look like. Just do online schooling as it is much faster, convenient, and better. I suppose this is simply a school like any other one, absolutely pathetic. Low funding and even more cuts to education from the Republicans doesn't help it anymore.

Seabreeze, the only A school in Volusia county for the year of 2013-2014, has helped me tremendously. The staff is beyond helpful and supportive and strive to help the students in their educational path. They are there for those who need extra help with something and want you to understand the curriculum to the best of your abilities. Although it is an old school it has been recently remodeled and is very beautiful. There's a minor drug problem but it's in every highschool to be honest. So happy to say I'll be graduating from Seabreeze highschool! Class of 2015

There is a pervasive drug culture at this high school. We are removing our daughter from this school just to get her away from the pot. It is possible to be in this school and not smoke but it would be hard to find friends and you would definitely be in the minority. Teachers are hit and miss. Some seem to care others are just not interested. Spruce Creek would be a better choice.

Seabreeze has a very nice campus and fantastic peripheral staff. It is clean and always feels safe. There are a few fantastic teachers. The administration is so cluttered down by menial tasks I am not sure they are able to do the job needed for the students. Generally I want to blame the county for most shortfalls but I have had limited support almost all around. So, it is a safe clean school with nice kids,limited social problems . Education is like all what your child makes it. Best of luck.
