Interlachen High School Reviews

I like Interlachen High because the class sizes are not big, teachers are helpful and administrators are the best. Interlachen is like family and is a place where all teachers know you by name even if you are not in their class. This is what made Interlachen High school a great experience for me.
At Interlachen you can feel free to communicate with admin/teachers inside or outside of school whether it has to do with academics, athletics, or programs/clubs.
The school overall is an amazing place with such an amazing staff! Everyone is very sweet and the environment is an awesome vibe. There are tons of classes and CTE courses that are so hands on and the teachers are always willing to help you succeed in any way possible.
I went to IHS in 10th grade and am attending the nearby college while still being enrolled here, most classes offered a decent academic challenge. I also made some great friends while there!
Most of the teachers are real nice, and some are strict. Overall, it's a really good school. Been there since 9th grade year, and I really love it. Everyone knows everyone, it's a small town school.
My experience so far at Interlachen High School is mostly really good. My overall favorite part of the school is its Spanish classes and agriculture (ag) classes. The teachers at the school who teaches those courses are really amazing. The Spanish teacher (Senor Cooley) has an amazing personality and he cares for all his students. You can go to him about anything. If something comes up and you don't know what to do, he will pray for you and tell you that he's praying. The ag teacher (Mrs. Houk) is amazing also. Once you get to know her, you will love her. She is also the Interlachen Sr. FFA Advisor. Mrs Houk is my 2nd mom. She cares about her students and nothing can get passed her. With that saying, my experience so far has been really good, since I have really good teachers.
The school is overrun with school spirit. The teachers and students form great relationships and students feel comfortable coming to the teachers for help with things.
Do not expect a guiding hand here. Nothing is handed to you or provided, it is merely swept under the rug to the satisfaction of the administrators. The Biology honors course that I am currently taking was left with out a instructor for 5 weeks. Bare in mind this honors class has a end of course exam. After being taunted with a new teacher, all we received was a limp hand shake and our gym coach. While my time at I.H.S. has be prominently awful I would like to shed light of the true diamonds in the rough, such as Prof. Wykoff who is a great teacher. Despite the narrow minded and jaded administration, the staff and lunch staff are wonderful and very kind and helpful. The over all student body of I.H.S. is mostly made up of washouts, "ye'ye's" , and people trying desperately to escape the whirl pool the is Interlachen high school. Yet the is not a failure of Interlachen High School, but the school system its self. One can not fix the system that defines him
Interlachen High School is a rural high school located within Putnam County. Although it may be rural it is a very good high school, especially compared to the high schools nearby. In the past this school was not up to par, but with the new administration the school has gone from something that was not ideal, to something that is excellent.
The teachers at this school are supportive and help students with their potential difficulties surrounding school work. The teachers and administration are one of the best parts of the school.
I can compare this school to at least one other school in the area and one school in the area that is considered the "best." Compared to a school called Q.I. Roberts, a Cambridge school with a high graduation class, this school is better. This school offers more support for diverse students, a friendlier environment, and still has tough academics and an ability for students to learn.

they care for their students and there education and they don't like bullying and they make sure we pass and get the knowledge we know
Interlachen High School has pros and cons. Some of the teachers do their best to prepare you for college, while others seem like they're there to collect a paycheck. There is a lot of school spirit surrounding athletics though!
wonderful school with amazing teachers! All members of staff care deeply about the students education as well as their well being. the only thing I have to say negatively is that I wish there were was more funding for Putnam county as a whole so that the more overlooked programs could get built up some more. I also wish there was an auditorium for a drama class, but I still love this school!
Interlachen taught me to trust myself, and to be willing to try. The community was strong, confident, but very backwoods with their mentality. I was able to be apart of the music program at school and that is where I blossomed. I was able to see parts of the country that I never thought I'd ever see. There were many different types of people while I attended school, and I loved that!
IHS is a welcoming school overall. You won't meet anyone who is deliberately rude. Once you attend Interlachen high you'll feel like you're apart of a big happy family. One thing I would change about Interlachen is the type of food that is provided. It's too healthy to a point where the food has almost no flavor.
We live in poor county and our school is full of caring teachers and staff that make the best out of what we have.
I would love them to actually put an effort into the art program instead they focus on sports more. A group and I had to fight for an art 2. I do think the food is getting better because last year it was horrible I wouldn't eat anything until I got home. I do feel like the teachers don't really get us ready for the real world like I have no clue how to do taxes or write a check. Theirs so much stuff I don't know how to do and it's crazy to think I'm not prepared to live on my own or to even go to college.
Interlachen high school is a very good, teachers help you understand the material they are teaching and it's a very safe place. One thing i would change about school is the appearance of it make more friendly environment.
