Thank you for this opportunity. I moved from NYC to Deland, Florida in my senior year of high school(2021/2022). The transition was very difficult. The pandemic was just starting to wind down. Not only did I miss having a “regular” high school experience in NYC, I now had to adjust to living in Florida and being the new senior at Deland High School. Although it took some getting use to, I did have a great senior year! Learning the campus was a challenge, in NYC you are in one building and go from floor to floor. I got the hang of it! I was also able to make a few close friends that I am sure I will have for years to come. Teachers were welcoming and helpful. I don’t think there is anything I would change.
Deland High is a unique school. It's extensively diverse in both the students and teachers, also extending to the classes available and sports to choose from. The availability of differing classes to choose and ways for us teenagers to get out some aggressions in sports ensures a good possibility of college preparation and enables students to work with counselors to select a path that best suits them through high school. Many different types of students (i.e. race, culture, religion, etc.) attend and allow young people to develop social understanding and learn who they want to identify with. Finding these many cliques throughout the school is a great way for students to make friends and feel a little more welcome instead of dreading the thought of attending a school where they don't fit in. It isn't a pristine school, but it's not supposed to be. Any public school will have it's trouble makers, which is unfortunately a clique that students find popular. It is still a good school.
Great teachers! They really want to help the students learn and be successful. I’m also involved in sports, i play flag football for Deland High, i have the best coach, he truly gets to know every one of his players and is just amazing!
