Everyone one there is really kind as long as you are into some sort of sport, art, club, etc. Some of the teachers are a bit mean but overall I’ve never really had a problem with them. They offer IB, AP, full dual enrollment, and plenty of classes full of kids that are eager to learn. They spend their money wisely and they have one of the best sports and arts programs out of all of the public schools in the county if not state.

Upon entering a new school there’s an expectation that you’ll be guided to take courses that best fit your student, that you’ll be given proper information about the school and who to contact if questions arise. It’s pretty disheartening to enter a counselors office for the first time who not only lacks empathy but clearly sees your student as just a number. Vague explanations and directing us to a website is hardly counseling. Websites are not updated, student calendars are filled in after the week is over and grades are rarely correct. Communication should be key here - to have a successful student, they need that example to follow from teachers and administrators. So disappointed.

Why is there no electrician course or auto shop or aerospace class or a wood shop course all things employers are looking for. I had these courses in California which helped me get a good job with a major airline. Not all kids what to be a doctor or lawyer. If kids want any of these courses i put down, they have to spend mega dollars to learn these things at trade schools. These schools in Brevard get lots of money where does it go? It sure does not go to help kids get good jobs or help them get any kind of skills at all.

Bad, Bad, Bad Athletic Director (Fred Kenney). He harassed me after a football game. He also lets small children onto the sidelines of the field during the game. Also, coach Todd Wilson is terrible. We have heard him curse "F" words to the children because they lost a game. I cannot believe it. This is completely unacceptable adult behavior. As adults, we are supposed to be role models for our kids.
