Teachers are hit-or-miss. Some are amazing, while others are much more frustrating to learn from. The school itself isn't bad it's just outdated, being over 100 years old it's to be expected. They are however building new facilities to supplement the older buildings and growing population of the school.

This school does not care about anything but power, money, and rules. The principal and some of administration is extremely sexist, holding girls to a different standard than the boys, and completely different rules for the boys all together. Administration will pretend to listen to you what you hav...

I came to FLA my freshman year and stayed all four years. I spent most of my time at the school between all the events they host and my on campus job. I love this school, including all the staff and students in it. The teacher to student ratio is great and allows the teachers to really help you one-...
