  1. Santa Rosa County School District

    • Milton, FL
    • 62 reviews

    Alum: The schools in Gulf Breeze are second to none... a private school experience at a public school price! The faculty & staff are highly qualified, and the administrative team cares deeply for their students, even after the students are long gone! The scores shown above are incorrect: the graduation rate is 98% and the School Score is an A Rating! All in all I wouldn’t go anywhere else...college was a breeze because of my high school experience!

  2. Escambia County School District

    • School District
    • Pensacola, FL
    • 94 reviews

    Senior: I think there are a lot of things that happen with no consequences involved. There was a massive case of bullying in one of my classes and nothing was done to either of the girls. The food isn't good. I think it's overpriced in the a la carte line for food that's not even remotely worth it. The cafeteria is normally dirty since people don't know how to clean up after themselves. Compared to the other high schools in this county, we don't get to do as much for extracurricular activities such as dances, spirit weeks, or game days. The teachers are always there to help and go out of their way. They will help you with work for other classes, college essays, and will try to work around your schedule as much as possible.

    Cushing Academy

    • Private School
    • Ashburnham, MA
    • 9-12
    • 93 reviews

    Alum: I am a loyal Alumnus who now works at Cushing. When I was here as a student over 30 years ago this school embraced me as a youngster looking to find his way as a young freshman who needed a lot of guidance, structure & support. The support I got then is the same support that I see students getting now. Our faculty and staff are very hands-on and attentive to student needs and learning styles. We have an advisory system in place that has built-in checks and balances to make sure the students get the support they need & do not get lost. The student to faculty ratio is such that all students are respected and known for who they are and what they bring to our community. The true meaning of our mission statement, which reads - Cushing exists for students and develops curious, creative and confident learners & leaders has not been more evident for a long time. Cushing's future is bright and I am very proud to be a part of this community again as a faculty member and loyal Alum. Go Penguins!
