School for Advanced Studies - Wolfson

#6 Best Public High Schools in Florida
Senior: School for Advanced Studies is a really awesome place overall. High school classes are all AP except for Pre-Calculus and are held in the afternoon. During the morning, the teachers hold open office hours for students to swing by and ask questions or get tutoring. The teachers are very friendly and extremely supportive; the small school size will allow you to build more intimate relationships with them and with your fellow peers. The small school size is also a downside as well. Because there are are only about 120 students throughout the 11th and 12th grade classes, clubs and activities are certainly lacking. Additionally, there are no science teachers. If you want to take AP science classes, you're going to have to rely on self-study. Though, that's not inherently a bad thing. School for Advanced Studies demands that students be self-driven and willing to go beyond and learn outside of the classroom, and for that reason, I think it's a pretty neat school.

School for Advanced Studies - North
Miami-Dade County Public Schools, FL

#10 Best Public High Schools in Florida
Senior: SAS North is a high school that provides school with a multitude of beneficial academic opportunities: dual-enrollment classes, advanced placement courses, a beyond helpful counselor. However, SAS is much more than academics. It provides students with a high school experience that one could dare to imagine. For instance, Thanksgiving celebrations, annual class trips, end of the year picnic,etc. In addition to all this, SAS acts as a second family - one which comforts and aids its students during times of distress. All in all, SAS is a high school that strives for excellence in all categories of life. If I was given a second chance to choose between my former high school or SAS North, I would choose SAS North; they provided me with so many opportunities of which I am more than grateful.

#11 Best Public High Schools in Florida
Senior: I’ve been a student at MAST Academy since 11th grade. My father is in the military and we travel the world, which means I’ve been enrolled in many high schools. When comparing MAST to the other high schools I’ve attended, I can say with confidence that MAST is THE BEST school I have ever attended. Academics and sports are taken very seriously and is located in a great location; right on the beach. Although MAST does have some flaws such as their food and school spirit, they make up in their excellence in every other aspect!

#14 Best Public High Schools in Florida
Alum: It was a wonderful place to attend school. School for Advanced Studies- Homestead campus is by far the best SAS campus there is. The people you will meet, including teachers, administrators, and classmates, are all kind and caring people who want you to be successful and will put in the extra mile to ensure that you are. I was hesitant about attending SAS at first and reluctantly applied, however after getting accepted and thinking long and hard I decided it was a fantastic opportunity that I could not give up. And I was right! It is such an amazing high school and all the lies people say about missing out on highschool experiences is absurd. I had more fun here than I ever did at my previous school. You make new friendships with new people that are just absolutely fantastic and you get a head start on college all while still being a kid with prom, end of the year trips, grad bash, fun intercampus events, and all while attending the #1 school in florida and #4 in the United States.

#15 Best Public High Schools in Florida
Senior: Most of my experience here has been wonderful. There have been a couple of teachers here and there that weren't that good at all but the majority are amazing. I couldn't help but notice how invested the teachers are in the students success and have even developed some amazing bonds with some of my teachers. For an arts school, the academics are pretty good and of course the different art strands are also amazing. It's a very free and independent environment but the faculty members give help if you seek it out (counselling, recommendations, scholarship opportunities, tutoring, etc...) which I think is perfect when trying to get highschoolers to get used to a college environment. My only problem is that certain higher up administrators have been slacking and don't treat every strand with the same respect which is totally unfair but other than that, everything here is pretty nice.

Senior: Coral Reef Senior High School is the best school in South Florida. The faculty and staff ensures that their students are in a safe environment at all times, and takes the safety of their students seriously. Academically Coral Reef has the best and diverse programs that is catered to every individual students different way of learning.

Not only is academics something they support the students at Coral Reef with but they make sure to check on the students mental health. Coral Reef has amazing counselors that provide help to their students whenever they need it, and the administration is one of the most welcoming I know.

iPrep Academy
Miami-Dade County Public Schools, FL
PK, K-12

#17 Best Public High Schools in Florida
Senior: I like the freedom and independence iPrep provides but I think the school can grow in terms of clubs and activities. I love the fact that we get internships and really enjoy my own internship since it is a step towards my desired field and I like that juniors and seniors get to leave campus early for internship, dual enrollment, and volunteering. I also enjoy the fact that we have MacBook laptops that we can take home in order to use for school. This has especially helped during the quarantine because we're already accustomed enough to using the internet for class to cope with using online classes. However, the arts are woefully underdeveloped and I think they could definitely use some work to make the school much more colorful and interesting.

Miami-Dade County Public Schools, FL

#21 Best Public High Schools in Florida
Senior: My experience at MAST at FIU was an amazing experience. I enjoyed the environment that the school is established in. The chance to be in a high school as well as college allowed me to see how rigorous and mentally stimulating universities were. Being at the high school also allowed me to meet a diverse range of students as well as economic backgrounds. I enjoyed taking college level courses as well as taking high school courses as well. I would however like to see a new road construction for accessibility to the school. Since there is only one road that leads you in and out, the safety as well as the convenience of parents and students is very thin. I would also like that the school gave more activities throughout the year. Overall, the school provides a lot of resources and opportunities for teens to achieve their academic goal.

#23 Best Public High Schools in Florida
Senior: My school provides students the opportunity to explore artistic interests to an extreme. DASH teaches kids Fashion, Architecture, Industrial Design, Graphics, and Film, along with art of course. These courses are critical to our development and allow us, students, to think differently. We think like designers and artists. The skills we develop at this amazing school allow us to work with other designers and bring a new perspective to the table. We get to create beautiful portfolios that will help us when applying to college. DASH also rewards students with scholarships such as a 3 week trip to SVA and Parsons in New York City, fully paid. These opportunities are only available at DASH. This school is fantastic, allowing students to explore their passion for art on a deeper level.

Senior: I have been attending TERRA Environmental Research Institute for the past four years. I can honestly say i have enjoyed my time at TERRA. Not only do the teachers push you to excel in all your classes they prepare us for college making our transition easier for when we graduate. Many students at terra have high career goals and the teacher try to make them possible in every way. TERRA is not only an academic school we also have many clubs, sports, and activities for all kinds of students. I am enrolled in the Band program.

#31 Best Public High Schools in Florida
Sophomore: Young Women's Preparatory Academy is a school in which you are made to excel in the most ways possible. Throughout my years at this school, I have learned the meaning of determination and responsibility, being able to work hard to achieve many goals. I enjoyed how talking to teachers on a one-to-one basis was very accessible and available to me at almost any time, and most of them are there to help you. Though it is quite rigorous to say the least, I also understand that it is for the best, as they want you to feel confident in yourself and want you surpass in a myriad of ways, more than you ever thought possible. Young Women's Preparatory has taught me the skills I would require when moving up to higher levels of education, and I am quite thankful for that; I learned how to be diligent in my work, as well as being able to present myself as the individual that I am. I can say that my experience has been one of challenge and resolve, and one that is now helping me towards my end goal.

Archimedean Upper Conservatory (AUC)

#35 Best Public High Schools in Florida
Senior: Archimedean Upper Conservatory is definitely a good school but it’s undeniably really hard. It’s good for being so hard because It really teaches you how to work through hard times even though it’s inevitable that you will sink very often. I cried for a majority of my time there from the overwhelming stress and work but the people there definitely made everything worthwhile. No one’s really left out to feel odd or different because the school makes It easy for everyone to come together and feel included. The small classes also make it really easy to meet new people because it’s only about 15 to about 25 people at most. The teachers are very much dedicated to their jobs and are really there for you when you need it. The school has its down sides of course when things get hard with academics and all that, but you’re definitely well prepared. It’s definitely a roller coaster being a part of Archimedean Upper Conservatory, but trusting the process is key

Junior: Been to the school since 6th Grade, I enjoy the environment and the teachers that push us! There is a lack of diversity, and there are slightly more students who are ok around other races, but do not always understand/respect the cultural difference. All in all it’s as bad as good as any other highly academic STEM school especially a public one.

#51 Best Public High Schools in Florida
Senior: It’s a great school with great opportunities in academics. It’s a language school where students excel in Spanish, French, or Italian. Teachers are well prepared and knowledgeable. Administration cares about students and knows everyone on a first name basis. Students are expected to maintain a high GPA since it’s a magnet school and they must apply to be able to attend. All classes are honor classes and students are able enroll in AP courses as well. During junior and senior year, students may do dual enrollment where they get a head start on college for free. Accessibility to counselors and support personnel is easily available. And last, courses are rigorous and students are recommended for accelerated programs like Capstone which is very similar to IB. In general, is a fantastic school to attend if a student prefers a smaller school setting.

#102 Best Public High Schools in Florida
Parent: My son has been attending ISCHS already for 2 plus years (since 6th grade and he is now in 8th grade). It's an amazing environment, academically challenging and zero tolerance to bullying. Despite the fact that the school is small, its classrooms size are as big as any other big school campus - each classroom is fully equipped with latest technology. The school doesn't say much from the outside appearance but once you go into the classrooms, it has the facilities of any top private school at no cost. It should be ranked as the #1 most cost-effective middle/high school in Miami-Dade County for sure! Not to mention that it has been ranked consistently for many year as one of the TOP 5 schools in Florida and TOP 50 in the nation by US NEWS & World Report. I would recommend this school to anybody but be open-minded to the size of its campus - hopefully they can soon move to a bigger campus.

Parent: I am a parent of two students that have attended Archimedean Middle Conservatory. Our overall experience has been nothing but positive. The administration along with the teachers create an atmosphere that is both safe and nurturing. Whenever any of my two children have had a concern or just needed to talk to someone, there is always a teacher or the principal that is available to take time out of their schedule to hear them out. Academically, the school prepares all the students equally for success whether the student is gifted or in the non-gifted setting. I can honestly say that I am very proud and thankful that my children had the opportunity to attend Archimedean Middle Conservatory (AMC). No other school in the county could have prepared them as well as Archimedean Middle Conservatory (AMC) has.

Middle School Student: The food is, well, middle school food. Usually beans, rice, and very occasionally something nice like chicken nuggets. Personally, i prefer to bring my own school lunch. Most of the teachers are fantastic, although some have preferences for certain grades. On the social aspect, amazing. Last school i went to i mt like two friends, but this school allows for much more social contact. However, i feel that k-6 are very isolated, and all their classes happen inside of a small corridor, while middle school gets to explore the whole, amazing campus between classes.

George Washington Carver Middle School

#52 Best Public Middle Schools in Florida
Alum: Carver is certainly a good school, but mostly because of the students. It's academics are great and students are smart and eager to do well. It's athletics program is also pretty good, although not a focus.
Teachers are good for the most part, but it's a mixed bag. I've had some of my best and a couple of my worst teachers here. (Make sure to get into physical science in 7th grade if you can, you'll get the best teacher ever if you do.)
The administration is probably the worst part about Carver. They treat you like just another task to finish and inconsistently enforce unnecessary rules (like wearing an ID in addition to a complete uniform) depending on how they feel and if they like you.
I felt that the school is very inclusive and kids rarely created exclusive cliques. Nearly all of the time people are friendly especially to people who feel left out.

Junior: I’ve had an amazing experience at American Heritage! The school provides a challenging curriculum that prepares students for the rigor of college academics ; there are many different classes and several academic programs which allow students to explore possible interests and find out what we enjoy. Although classes can be very difficult at times and the workload is heavy, the teachers here are very caring and are always willing to give additional help to you after school. The sports and fine arts programs offer many different opportunities for students to improve themselves outside of academics. The shows and plays of the theater department are spectacular, and although there is not yet a proper theater, the size of the black box is sufficient and the set design is amazing.
