Deltona High School Reviews
Rating 3.39 out of 5 413 reviews
My time at Deltona High School was a combination of the most memorable and challenging years in my life. The three years I spent there encompassed a multitude of experiences that cannot be fully conveyed within the remaining 866 characters. However, I can confidently say that the school staff played a pivotal role in saving my life. Throughout my freshman, sophomore, and junior years, I struggled with a lack of motivation, battled depression, and proved to be a difficult student. Despite these obstacles, it is remarkable that the administration not only supported me but also recognized my potential and even favored me. They never lost faith in me, even when I repeatedly lost faith in myself. It is undeniable that my journey at Deltona High School has shaped me into the person I am today.
Being a student at Deltona high means that you have to constantly go through the school day with a natural schedule that helps develop a sense of time management. Sometimes there will be a problem like a decrease in teachers and staff or a student(s) that make others feel uncomfortable or threatened. Whether mental or physical, this school works towards bettering the overall high school experience. They have created weekly rewards for the lower average students that helps lead them to success throughout the semesters. I believe the only change that could truly be changed is the expenses part of being a student there. There are fees for the littlest things that can be considered expensive and I find it a little unfair for those that don’t have the luxury of money as well as others do. I hope to see more improvements through my last year here and wish those to come have it easier.
My experience with my High School was borderline okay. I came into my Sophomore new after moving in across the country and didn't understand much of the campus and teachers. I would not learn much in any class I had, core and elective. Administration and Teachers weren't much help for any type of circumstance that didn't benefit them. I would always ask questions about topics and terms I wasn't understanding in every class and most teachers would be hesitant to answer or even answer in the first place. It especially lacked in the mathematics and science departments for teaching the simple curriculum. There were very few administrators that valued students hard work and would take time out of their personal days to help with homework, projects, etc. When it came to college and helping out juniors and seniors there wasn't much help to prepare us, when we would ask questions and want to invest into our futures there wasn't much guidance. Us as students would have to help ourselves.
