Fort Myers High was a very welcoming school when I first got there. Throughout my 4 years there, I received so much help from all of the staff. With one of my teachers introducing me to track, I am now going to college on and athletic scholarship. The IB program I feel has prepared me so much for college. I was involved in many clubs in which many teachers sponsored them. There was not one time I felt like I was on my own throughout my high school career. Fort Myers was a great choice in receiving my high school diploma, especially offering different types of learning including IB, AP, AICE, dual enrollment, honors and traditional classes. I feel that Fort Myers is also very welcoming to special need students as there are so many staff who are willing to help. One of my track coaches knew sign language so anyone could participate!
There will continue to be room for improvement at any institution of education across the globe. However I will testify that Fort Myers Senior High School, was most defiantly applicable for vast improvements in only one department. Those being their music and arts programs.
Although all public schools have their issues with these programs, Fort Myer High School has the ability to improve them and chooses not to. As a result instruments and art supplies end up getting broken and going unused.
However in terms of education, it solely depends on the courses one takes, as anyone who chooses the IB, or Dual Enrollment courses, are guaranteed a good education. All other sectors are lacking in teachers and material, often because the school prioritizes these programs over others.
Hence, the school was average, lacking in creating a better art and music department, however capable of offering a good education for those willing to take the hard road and apply themselves.

Fort Myers High is a great school! They have great academics and sports that help kids achieve many things. They allow you to grow in your community by joining clubs and teams that show you what friendship and fun looks like. We have good sports teams that help kids get connected and do what the love. There is an Ib program that allows students to grow in their academics, and helps prepare kids for college. This program sets kids up to learn new and interesting ideas about the world and specific fields of work. This program also teaches kids to deal with challenges and work through them. It also helps kids get prepared for college work and teaching styles of professors. Overall Fort Myers High allows kids to achieve many goal and have my opportunities to do so.
