The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students.

We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I loved Boca Raton Community High School, academically, it was a great school, and most of my teachers were very good too. There was an issue with substitutes, but COVID could also be to blame. Athletics were good as well, however, smaller sports don't get nearly as much funding from the school as they should.

The school as a whole is amazing. There is a wide variety in cultural background and a lot of fun clubs. I would say that the biggest thing that needs change is the administration because there are a few deans or other admin that do not treat students with respect and do not understand that it can affect the students. Besides that, the school provides plenty of rigorous courses for you to be able to succeed in and with plenty of additional resources to help you.

It's with a great degree of regret that my last child is attending as what made this school great diminishes. Kindness, good listening, mutuality, maturity, wisdom and did I write kindness? evaporate under a harsh new administration marked by mediocrity. Oh for tge good old days!
