Class of 2014. Attended from 2011 - 2014, best education I received from any school , many teachers willing to go the extra mile to tutor students and help them to succeed. Tons of privileges like pep rallies and lunch out even for students who had behavioral issues like I did they really did a great job in working with me and developing traits that carried over into life after high school. Tons of opportunity however I will agree that the arts are generally overlooked in preference of sports but I think it's like that with a lot of high schools. Over all I think this is the best high school in the area if you live around this way don't send your child any where else and if they have problems just let them do virtual school which is another very constructive learning environment. I give this school 4 out of 5 stars for being awesome and trying their best.
My 1st period is arranged randomly everyday depending on how they cleaned the rooms. Some teachers don't even like any of the children so i am not even sure for why they work here. For the 5 years this school has been open i do believe the classes of 2017-2018 never clean their messes at lunch. They have tried to make people clean but "fun Friday" is illegitimately just music and dancers. It never changes and i have found out, by myself, nearly half the school is currently either sick or pregnant. Some teachers are alright, some teachers roast on kids and go a bit too far sometimes, some teachers just wanna get their money. To sum it all up this school is filled with idiocy, ignorance, laziness and the only time anything is good is if you dick ride the teachers, by that i mean be a teachers pet for EVERYONE.
I am currently attending this school and I am a Junior. Or as some would say in 11th grade or 3rd year. This is not a bad school. Most of the teachers will help you if you need anything to pass their class. I didn't give it a 5 star because administration and most students are incredibly rude. Administration will not tell you why not to do something and will yell at you when you have no idea what's going on. Then when you ask they get all defensive and yell even more. All you can do is walk away angrily with them being all prideful and their nose to the sky. Now the students can be nice. But they all start too much drama when it isn't necessary. Then you are the heartless one because apparently you don't care enough for them.
I attended this school last fall then I left after winter break. This school has no type of respect. The staff is horrible including the principal. I once asked the principal why does your school look disgusting after lunch and he responded with an rude answer. University needs to be more strict about students leaving garbage everywhere during and after lunch time. It’s very disrespectful and unprofessional to the distinguished guest that visit the school campus to see food everywhere and bees flying everywhere . University needs to do better with there guidance for their students.
I am in the graduating class of 2014 and I am pleased with how the school has been for my three years so far. All of my teachers have been nice for the most part, even Mr.Conrad, who can be a bit stoic, warms up to you. The only teacher I've ever really had a problem with was Coach Jones but she only seems to like the basketball kids. Stem academy is wonderful, biomed especially. The teachers are engaging and reliable. They work with you and care. Mrs.Clayton is honestly one of the best teachers I've had and she always goes out of her way to help kids falling behind or struggling with the course. I will say one thing, if you get a bad comment or review whatever you want to call it from a teacher they don't hesitate to put you in co-taught classes without parent consent. Co-taught classes are for the "less capable" of learning. My 9th grades english teacher didn't like that I was chatty and even with my 5 in writing/reading and A in her class i was put in a co-taught class for "help".
I'm a freshman and so far the only actual good thing here is the building. But teacher's are disrespectful and cus and even when you try to ask a question they'll cut you off cause their too lazy to care about our education and only care about their pay checks, every kid here does drugs and has sex, the food is disgusting, and depending how much stamina you have, you'll be tired going up and down 3 stories by stairs multiple times while trying to get through over 2,000 kids. Very rarely will you meet anyone nice in this school cause almost everyone there is loud, distracting, and almost all of them think there better than everyone else. Plus everyone there is ghetto and racist mainly towards white people. Take some advice from a kid who started high school and who already noticed every problem before the first quarter! Cause that's not good.
Great school. Of course there are the typical problems that are associated with high school. My daughter had an issue and I worked with Mrs. Labarre and she was so wonderful. She helped me and never made me feel like my problem was too small. Beautiful campus as well.
This school is not recommendable. Some of the only enjoyment I had in this school was making fun of it with my friends. The administrators are unbelievably annoying, the principal is inept and cannot even maintain the rules which he writes thankfully, the school has no care or funding for the arts i.e.: theatre, guitar, keyboarding, etc. and would rather spend the majority of their money on sports programs, which I'm sure is just a sensible business practice, but is insulting to the students who care deeply for the arts not to mention that this isn't a for-profit institution..., a large percentage of the faculty has no care for the education of the students, the guidance counselors are always, always unavailable and even when they are, they're not very helpful, and some teachers just aren't the best. The faculty pretends to care about our education, but you don't have to look too hard to see that they really don't. There are several very important pieces of information that students are simply not well-informed about, and the excess of useless information thrown at the students creates the illusion, as a student, that you are being told everything you need to know to succeed and even overachieve in high school, but in reality, there is so much that the school simply fails to inform students on, such as how to make up failed classes online with no penalty, how to graduate early, which classes and options are available to you, the importance of volunteering, etc. On top of all of this, there's Grad Plan, where, every 4 1/2 weeks or so, an hour is set aside from the school day to go over the midterm progress report or report card, recording the grades on a sheet of paper, and writing down reflections and goals on another sheet of paper. I'm just going to speak for everyone when I say that this helps absolutely no one. And yes, there might be a few people here or there who genuinely benefit from the intended purpose of Grad Plan, which is fine. But why would the school continue to waste the time of every other student when only a few students at best are benefiting from Grad Plan? During most of the Grad Plans I've been through, I simply take my midterm progress report / report card and ignore everything else, sitting there doing nothing productive for the rest of the hour, and I know for a fact I'm not the only one who does this. There are also some nitpicks that I have with UHS that are somewhat subjective, such as pep rallies being unbearably awful and a complete waste of time, the mere concept of arena subbing, and the placement of the stairs and the doors on the second floor buildings which leads to clutter you know exactly what I'm talking about. Not to mention the cafeteria "food" and dress code, which are both completely different problems that have nothing to do with UHS, just the Volusia County school system, which might just be worse than the school itself. While this may be one of the better schools in the county, I would definitely recommend sending a student to a school outside of Volusia County if possible, such as Seminole County. I've heard great things about Seminole County schools from several people, and nothing but horror stories about other Volusia County schools. However, I will absolutely admit that I found plenty of enjoyment and substance with some of the teachers, such as most of the junior and senior teachers. And the campus looks fairly decent, at least when it isn't covered in litter.
I will be attending university high school a.s.a.p and it seems to me that all these bad reviews are from the not academically fit people in the school or the outcasts as some may call them i'm sorry to put it this way but life isn't gonna exactly always be fair, do good in school, participate, and be a good student that's all there really is to it. University is a nice school with bad things happening don't worry about the things that don't concern you and just do what you go to school to do which is learn, not complain about every little thing happening.
this is a horrible school and most of the teachers are stuck up and rude. they want students to pay just to leave the school for lunch no matter what grade u r in. and the physical education teachers r very rude and the lunch here is very nasty. students don't get time to speak with their guidence counselors. the principals are very horrible principals and the Deans stalk students who are not even doing anything bad. I would not prefer this school ti any parent
