It was an amazing school. It was hard moving, but Cocoa beach is amazing not only in their IB program but in their arts and sports too. I was in girls soccer and anything that involved the band and I would come back in a heart beat

Cocoa Beach is a great school. With ages ranging from 12 - 18, it is a widely diversified and special environment. All my years at Cocoa Beach and I don't have any bad things to say. Teachers are great and help me whenever I need it and can always count on faculty to keep our learning environment looking pretty.

Our daughter began at Cocoa Beach Junior-Senior High School in 7th grade and will graduate this summer. The academic offerings of IB, FLVS, and other college readiness programs, along with many opportunities to volunteer, have prepared our daughter for college. She had an opportunity to explore sports, music, and art at an earlier age than most, which has been a significant advantage for her. The location is beautiful and safe.

I rated this school because I had a bad experience with it. I guess like most school you have to deal with drugs, trashy bathrooms, rude people, but it was too much. I don’t think this school is a fit learning environment at ALL.
