South Miami Senior High School Reviews
Rating 3.58 out of 5 318 reviews
South Miami Senior High School has provided me with a memorable and enriching educational journey. From the moment I walked through its doors, I was welcomed into a diverse and vibrant community of students and teachers who have greatly influenced my overall experience. One aspect that stands out about South Miami Senior High is its strong commitment to academic excellence. The school offers a wide range of challenging courses, giving students the opportunity to explore various subjects and develop their intellectual abilities. The dedicated and passionate teachers have been instrumental in fostering my love for learning. Their expertise and willingness to go above and beyond to help students succeed have made a significant impact on my educational growth. Beyond academics, South Miami Senior High offers a plethora of extracurricular activities and clubs that cater to diverse interests. Whether it's participating in the school band, or being a part of the art club.
I attend a decent school, not too good yet not too bad. This is actually my first year attending South Miami Senior High School, since before this school I went to Coral Gables Senior High School. So far, I like it, it's been a bit difficult adjusting since I have no friends in this school, but the teachers are nice and polite, they are always checking up on you and making sure you're caught up with the lessons and assignments. The administration staff are very nice also, they provide support and assistance to both students and parents whenever it is needed. The classes and bathrooms are not too neat though, the bathrooms stalls are not too clean always, and there is a lot of gum on the class desks which can be irritating. In conclusion, South Miami Senior High School is a decent school located in FL, Miami not too different from others schools in this area.
Something I love about my school is how many resources they give you in order to succeed in your classes. The counselors are always there to help and teachers are available as well for the most part. However, something I don’t like is that sometimes the air conditioner stops working without warning and it gets really hot with this Miami weather.
