At Miami Sunset Sr High school there are some teachers who just assign things and don't teach, but there still are bright spots. For example, Mr. Flipse is the history teacher here at Miami Sunset and he is one of the greatest teachers here. He truly cares about his students and I was always excited to enter his classroom.

the school has had a great leap in quality in recent years, academically the school has raised its level with better teachers and staff who offer very good programs and aid for their students. The activities carried out by the student board are also very good and little by little they try to visually improve the school and the discipline of their students.

The music teachers were the only good part of this school, at least from my experience, the rest of the school was a terrible experience compared to the experiences I've heard from other people talking about their high schools.

This school does not care for its students in all honest, I have been a student for the past 3 years at Sunset and I confidently say this. Majority of teachers utterly shamble when it comes to engaging students to learn, it also does not help majority of the students do not care what happens to them...

This school doesn't look after the students best interests, just after their evaluations to get funds... They couldn't care less for the students that are not gifted or the ones that can not afford supplementary external-expensive tutoring to keep up with the fast pace of their academics; which are...
