A great school for those who are focused on academics. It only really lacks in the sports department as we have no teams. This is offset by their offer to provide a bus to other schools for sports

My daughter attended for her junior and senior years. Suncoast is a nice school. A bit smaller which was very nice. The career technical education is very good although in our experience the teacher involvement / support for our daughter was less than ideal. Overall, it is a very good school though.

My school has a lot of advantages, and the main ones stem from its CTE program. The CTE program is a unique chance to further your skills and understanding of a topic before going to college. You can also learn a trade during high school, giving you a career directly out of graduation. I also enjoy the college style schedule with 4 periods a day, 90 minutes a class. With these 90 minutes I can fully grasp a subject and understand it fully without being cut off by the bell. Polytech's only drawback is its lack of sports and clubs, only featuring a robotics club and chess club.

This school has a great community and some wonderful teachers, this school has improved a lot over the last few years, some of the teachers and students aren't very respectful but i believe the education itself makes up for it.

I like this school’s small school atmosphere and many of the teachers. That said, I find that this school does NOT welcome communication from parents AT ALL and is not great at supporting kids with special needs. They speak poorly to the students about their parents if their parents want to communic...

SPHS is a remarkable school that prepares our teens to excel in the real world. The teachers challenge them to think, thrive and engage plus enjoy learning! Students at SPHS are creative, intelligent and have a strong since of who they are. It is so exciting to hear and witness the passion for learn...
