It's a clean and nice school. They have many clubs and activities to be involved. I wish that it was more organized and they did more college preparedness.

I went to Jensen Beach High School for three years and had to leave during my junior year because of the environment. Jensen Beach High School involved bullying by not just the students but teachers and administration. The teachers would talk crap about you with other teachers as well as students right in front of your face and behind your back. Other than the teachers and the administration the sports are well organized and we have pretty good teams. The administration go through. Change where there are bathroom monitors and you're being watched while you use the bathroom then it randomly stops. Threaten you with expulsion and suspension if you are in the bathroom for over five minutes and it's just unfair. I've had multiple times where I was just using the bathroom and mining my own business when Miss Thompson Came in and started banging on the door telling you get out even though I just got in there if you plan on sending your child here just beware.

Excellent. Parent input and participation is encouraged. The leadership and teachers view parents as partners, not adversaries.

TERRIBLE!! My son has been harassed by Administration so much over the last month, that he has decided to quit school. I have had many conversations with the AP as well as the Dean and to no avail.

The administration is cruel and unfair to their students. The rules are too strict, especially the dress code. Their food is disgusting and unhealthy. And overall many of the kids look miserable in class.
