Imagine School at North Port is the only public school in the area that teaches kindergarten through 12th grade. It has an admissions process as a charter school but is free for students to attend. The school is divided into an elementary school campus for kindergarten through 5th grade and an upper school campus that covers 6th through 12th grades.

The school’s approximately 1,200 students are expected to adhere to six pillars of character: trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring and citizenship.

Each campus has its own age-appropriate clubs. Elementary students can participate in art club, the advanced reading challenge club and the National Elementary Honor Society. Upper campus students have their choice of several organizations, such as the computer/robotics club and student government.
Known as the Sharks, Imagine school’s athletic teams compete against other schools in various sports, including soccer, weightlifting, basketball and cross country.

The administration is very approachable with their open door policy. The rest of the staff is open communication as well.

My child is in their last year of the lower campus. But I would have liked to see a Science Fair, Book reports...something that was a "project". I have friends with children my child's age and they all do this. I feel like our kiddos missed out on something big here. I feel like next year they are going to the upper campus with little to no idea how to complete a big project or write a paper. Additionally, our teachers do not seem to update the daily grades often, I look weekly, and nothing is inputted for some of the subjects. This makes it VERY difficult to try to try to help our kids if we have little information to go on.

My overall experience here at imagine is decent, im not going to say its horrible or good because it fits in a term of both of them. I wouldnt recommend this school to many people so I think that would answer it, the school is crazy with their rules and it drives every student here crazy. most students also fall short on being able to get in touch with the high school counslor. this school is not the best but it has its ups and downs.

This is the most most amazing school- all around. In my personal opinion. I am so grateful our son made it into the 9th grade lottery.

Terrible school. The dean on the lower campus actually screamed at me and my husband. She discriminates against students and picks and chooses who she goes after based on favoritism. The upper campus nurse gave one of my children medication “accidentally” when my child does not take medication and m...

The schools needs all new staff. The teachers there insult children and curse in classrooms if you don’t stay involved as a parent you will never know what goes on..!! The principal is awful.. you can tell he is ready to retire he definitely doesn’t care about the kids if you were to ask the whole s...
