Overall, Florence High School has a great academic curriculum. The classes that are offered are exceptional. The cosmetology program could use a boost. It's outdated.

It's a really good school for the most part. Sometimes the administration makes bad decisions for the students, like when they did 1-way hallways, but usually it's good. The teachers are good and the departments are great. I think it'd be nice for them to hang up senior pictures for Fine Arts students as well, and not just the sports kids. I always see the senior football players but where are my seniors in show choir at? Good job cheerleaders but what about the dancers?

overall really good school for classes we get to take classes through UNA and North West Shoals, teachers are good they prepare you for what professors in college will be like. The school is also very passionate about sports.
