I love Dunedin High School i love it good staff good food good students good peopleread more

Although, in case you didn't know, Dunedin High's reputation is not the best, it actually is…read moresomewhat of a hidden gem of a high school. Coming from seven schools previously to this one (private and public) it's safe to say I know a good bit about the school system so just keep that in mind. Dunedin's direct public competition such as PHU, East Lake, and Tarpon are all egregiously overrated. Since large portions of those schools populations are wealthy they have access to virtually any drug which is why each of them have horrible drug problems, especially Tarpon (common for kids there to have gone to rehab). Teachers at east lake are lazy and rely on the wealth of the students there to pay for private tutoring rather than teaching the subject properly, this combined with their drug problem makes me question why anyone would consider this school. PHU is the best option of this list since it has the most driven population of student; however, they WILL work you harder than you have ever been worked before. The private schools are not much better considering all the ones in Pinellas county such as Calvary and especially CCC have the same drug problems as the listed public schools just for the premium price of about $16000. These schools make you think that your getting something for your money but in reality they are really limiting your education by making things harder than they have to be (meaning getting into rigorous classes such as AP classes which boost your GPA is harder to do here than elsewhere). These schools are also usually full of spoiled brats which is not always a good influence on other kids there cause everyone knows how good the work ethic of those kind of kids are. Jesuit seems to be the only reasonable private school however they are in Tampa and only allow boys. Now looking at Dunedin alone it is easy to overlook at first but here is an overview of what's up. The school has a very small population compared to any other public school in the county. Dunedin has teachers that fight for their students and really do a great job (that doesn't just come from me). Dunedin has a solid amount of AP classes and it's not difficult to get into one, as well getting into the social groups at the top in terms of grades is super easy since the class is so small (this comes from a student who is top of their class). The drug problem at Dunedin is minor especially when compared to other schools in the county. The bad news about Dunedin is that ever since COVID the school has been losing good teachers and things are generally on the decline in terms of quality, although there is new admin that looks good but I won't be there to see how they do. This decline is completely due to the school board of Pinellas county, they are absolutely TERRIBLE. They are the reason this review is missing a star and why Dunedin is declining. But all that being said dunedin will stay at least a decent school, better than the others mentioned at least. So essentially your two choices are between PHU and Dunedin, and keep in mind that there isn't a one size fits all kind of school so when deciding between these schools you really have to see which one fits your child the best. PHU will work ur child as hard as a college student but Dunedin will force your student to build their own work ethic to be at the same level (which for me was better). Ultimately both schools are being affected by the school board so the decline at Dunedin is really happening everywhere however PHU always is getting better student each year due to its IB program so that covers up all of their holes. If you are not interested in the IB or don't get into it PHU is in no way worth it at all. I hope this review gives you a little more insight into the school system if you are searching for a school for your child or if you are an alum looking back on your old high school hopefully this gives you insight into the situation here.

The academic programs are written individually, taking into account the child's areas of interest, as well as electives. I found the staff to be really caring and interested in helping the children to succeed, while allowing them to find their way under good supervision.

I highly recommend this program for any parent to check into if they are looking for the best well-balanced, non religious private school in Clearwater.

I HIGHLY recommend having a lawyer on speed dial if your child attends this school!…read more Especially to ensure accurate and unbiased records are being kept. Accountability is elusive and paper trials are carefully curated with precision to shield the administration from scrutiny. Expect a tightly controlled narrative that (conveniently) omits key context, concerns, and evidence provided from the student/parent. Don't believe me? Ask to review official records. Unfortunately, you cannot assume good faith. Decisions affecting student outcomes can be made without transparency, communication, or compassion. Critical meetings are rushed, imbalanced and tightly controlled - leaving families outnumbered, and little to no room for true advocacy or protection. In my experience, they have documented exaggerated or false claims in official records, denied parents access to Zoom recordings of key meetings, and more. If you believe the school district will act as an unbiased party, don't be fooled. They rely solely on the school's internal narrative- ignoring concerns brought by parents or students altogether. In my case, legal safeguards were sidestepped entirely to reach a predetermined outcome. Transparency and fairness? Nowhere to be found. Unless your child has a very strong adult advocate, they may have no real shot at justice within these walls. I urge any parent (especially those with an IEP, 504, or any emotional/behavioral challenges) to bring third-party advocates and legal counsel to any meetings. Record all communications and request everything in writing. At this school, documentation is weaponized, not used as a safeguard. And without legal eyes on every detail, children easily become the scapegoat for the school and system's failures.
