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.

Best part about Cape Coral High School is that they offer dual enrollment with the local college as early as junior year. There are also some AMAZING teachers, but at the same time theres some AWFUL ones. Very inclusive to students as a genderfluid student. Admin is pretty nice for the most part and has helped with most (definitely not all) issues presented at the school. Arts classes are very fun and relaxing, and the journalism/writing courses are intriguing and fun.

It was mostly ok. The administration does not try hard to relieve students stress and they only care about their scores.

There are a few teachers who genuinely want to see you succeed and do better not only in school but in your overall lives.

Lee county is a joke, no phone policy, no nothing, school lunch is horrible, teac...
