This School’s Reviews

4.0 Junior

12/22/2024

Campus is very open and well kept, Teachers are nice and welcoming going out of their way to ensure students' success. There are many clubs and sports to ensure students have something to do and make friends. Education is great including AP and honors and overall the school is an A school. School has great security but students sometimes may start fights.

4.0 Senior

11/20/2024

As a 4 year student of this school I can safely say that despite other students experiences I believe most of the teachers are good people, some of them are just bad at teaching none from my experience though. People complain about the food but cheese pizza isn't bad, the hamburgers are bad though.

4.0 Sophomore

8/1/2024

So far, I have had a really great experience at Vero Beach High School. The teachers really care about our individual success and they make themselves available to help us with any trouble we may be having. The campus is beautiful, our sports facilities are great, and we have a ton of clubs and extracurricular activities; there is really something for everyone. Overall, I think VBHS is a great place and I'm glad to be a part of the student body.

Amazing staff, great school. With so many options for educating our children in times like these, it's wonderful that there exists a place where kids can truly explore who they want to be and have a path to successfully get there. There is always someone ready and willing to help your child achieve.
