It is a school that played a hug even part in my high school years. School was boring for me until I came to this school. I'm doing better now because of this school. One thing I wish they could change would be if they can become a 4-year school instead of only a 2-year school

The few teachers that we do have, provide us with knowledge that is useful to us in the workforce, as well as in real life. The teachers care for each of the students, with kindness and respect. They provide us with the best of their abilities to teach, and are completely devoted to the subjects that they teach. They teach us with the best methods possible, which include various hands on activities, and they also try to incorporate technology as much as possible.

Considering this is a school dedicated to Environmental Science, the students here are much more focused on the environment, and academics. The population typically is involved with academic teams, fishing teams,kayaking, rowing and canoeing.

Let's take a Top Ranked High School and gut it. Great job citrus county! Students from 2017 on now will only spend half a year at AES and go back to their primary high school. So now we have a day camp and to boot no senior class at all. AES was highly rated with 100% grad rate and very high testing...
