Collier County is a great school district with high alumni support for our schools. What this means is that alumni play a significant role in the funding of sports equipment, extracurricular programs, and club needs. This isn't present in all of our schools, and a reason for this is the lack of morale among staff and students. This is because the unfair wages provided by the local government make teachers who are passionate about their jobs miserable and short-tempered. This affects student morale by making many obedient students targeted by negative attitudes and disallowing for students to feel connected to the staff. This results in a larger abundance of students who skip class and have very low morale. This low morale makes students embarrassed and reluctant to support school pride and makes the students feel less connected.
I have been in collier county ever since my elementary years, and it has been a fantastic experience. The activities and opportunities offered are fun and truly unforgettable. However, I would like to see a few things changed. There are student issues that I feel should be taken more seriously. An example is a current rule that states that teachers can tell their parents about something they see at school. So, for example, if a student confides in a teacher with private information (that they are pregnant, part of the LGBTQ community, or any other personal matter), then that teacher must tell the parent against the student's wishes. This rule makes students more hostile and uncomfortable. Some students who feel that school was once a safe space don't think that way anymore. CCPS is a county that has always looked out for its students. I know this won't change, but certain things in the system need to change for the betterment of our student body.
I spent 2 years as a CCPS-involved student. One as an on-campus student and the other as a full-time dually enrolled student. The first year on campus was understandably chaotic coming off of covid but as for my second, senior year, I've noticed a handful of problems, the first of which is how the faculty treats students. They come off spiteful and bitter as if they hate being there and interaction with kids is just another drag on their day. Generally, they are less than helpful and the guidance councilors are usually stretched too far thin to accommodate the student body in an effective manner. There were absolutely some wonderful teacher experiences, with teachers like Ms. Goodwin, Ms. Hartz, and Chef Miller. Still, these teachers seem constantly penalized for their positive and professional relationships with students while teachers like Audrey Gebber grade based on how much she favors you. (well understood among the student body)
