Haines City Senior High School 2800 Hornet Drive, Haines City, FL 33844

"My kids 1st year at this school and out of any school Ive had to deal with, this is by far the WORSE school. Staff are only there for paychecks. Kids get bullied and they do nothing but tell you about the cameras they have but when its time to look at cameras, nothing is found. My daughter was bumped all year by two bullies and when it was brought to staff attention, it was pretty much said if they fight, they both were getting 10 day suspension, which I guess as long as they were bumping and pushing her, and her not doing anything was ok, AS LONG AS THEY DONT FIGHT, they both were safe from suspensions. Teachers sending students to miss whole class periods for their student ids hanging on their backpacks instead of theor clothes. They focus on punishing students for unnecessary things. Again save yourself the headache."

"This school was absolutely terrible. I attended this school for about three weeks and it was the worst schooling I have ever seen. I came from one of the best small schools in the state of Vermont and the transfer was just embarrassing. The students give a bad name to the school. Academics were barely important to students. Students didn't make me feel welcome and neither did teachers. There was maybe a handful of kind teachers and students in a sea of people. There seemed to be no community and it was just plain horrible there."

"It's a crowded Title I school, but the kids are great, the staff is committed and the admin is on their game. I dropped my ATM card, kids found it and went out of their way to get it back to me. The new principal has really raised the bar. The whole school has a sense of community."

"Teachers are really nice, respectful, helpful. Very nice kids there. Never have been to a nicest school before. The principal is really cool and nice to be around with. You all would love it here (:"
