This has been a great school for my children. We have enjoyed the safe and friendly atmosphere.This is the school students from all over are trying to get into. They have some of the best teachers and staff, office staff, and school nurse.

This school is absolutely DREADFUL if you aren't athletic. My life revolves around musical theatre and literature, and I am made fun of constantly for doing what I love. Our arts progams are so incredibly low on funding, we don't eve have permanent lights in our gymatorium (yeah, we don't even have a real auditorium either). This school is too focused on sports. Football players are glorified, and cheerleading uniforms are pretty slutty, if I may be frank. The academics could be better on some teams, but I have enjoyed most of my teachers. If you love sports, then Ocoee is perfect for you, but if you love the arts, I'd try somewhere else.
