Matanzas High School Reviews
Rating 3.64 out of 5 335 reviews
My experience at Matanzas High School for these past years have helped me grow from an unexperienced teenager to a confident young adult.
I played volleyball for two years at Matanzas High School but unfortunately I could not play during covid.
The school was shut down and it was all remote learning and all sports were cancelled.
I have been on the high school golf team for the past three years and have enjoyed it.
I take lessons twice a week along with working part time.
I think was Matanzas needs to change are more classes geared towards students who will not be attending college. There should be more classes on trades. Mechanics, electricians ,cosmtology..etc.

There have been a lot of changes each year throughout my 4 years of attending and that makes it difficult to continue studying and changing without having a set way of doing things. My freshman year seemed normal with 5 periods each semester and 2 swapped the 2nd semester, them my sophomore year there was push back about the dress code and issues with that. My Junior year we received a new principal who made changes to when school started, we were moved to a 7 bell schedule with the same classes all year, the flow of car riders were changed. By my senior year there was a new government law issued about the use of phones and how they were prohibited from being used during teaching time and could get a teacher's license removed, but it was also hard for me as a dual enrolled student, that needed a verification code to access my college class, to work on them during my free time. The teachers are nice and friendly, but there is too much change happening to comfortably attend this school.
Matanzas is a rather good high school in Florida. Academic wise there are many great classes for students to take and most students get to walk across the stage. When a student is struggling with grades, there are certain programs that they can be put in and monitored by deans to help them. Though the administrators and teachers can be harsh on students and need a bit of compassion because us students are also people and have life problems as well, no matter what age we are. The guidance system is more for talking about grades and college readiness rather than emotional support in my opinion because their response can seem empty hearted. In regards to the food, it's not too bad. They serve a verity of breakfast options before class and there are 5 different spots for lunch which have options ranging from chicken Alfredo to dumplings and fried rice. Matanzas is a nice school with a diverse community of students who will stick by your side and always look for ways to help.
