Nature Coast Technical High School

I am a graduating senior from the class of 2014, this school has gone downhill dramatically in just my four years of attendance. It is hard to get help if you have any sort of problem, it took me months to talk to my guidance counselor for a schedule change for the next semester just for him to tell me I was too late to make the change. Some of the teachers are excellent but many just do not care about anything except standardized test scores. Teachers did not allow students to exempt exams even if they qualified for it just so they could get a bonus in their pay check. Going to this school is just the luck of the draw, like I said some teachers are excellent and some of the staff is exceptionally friendly. You really just have to harass the teachers and guidance counselors for any help at all. This school does not compare at all to the schools up north I was used to. Students here tend to be rude but that is just common in hernando county in general. I suggest if you do choose to attend or enroll your child make sure your voice is heard from the get go or you will receive no help. I have to admit Mrs.Ferlita was a great teacher, very kind, and would do anything for her students.

I graduated from Nature Coast Tech H.S. in 2008 and I can honestly say that although the school got in a lot of messes with their athletic department, I learned a lot academically. I was in the Health and Human service Cluster and in my senior year I decided to change to T.V. Production. Having the option of the T.V. Production cluster helped me realize what I wanted to do with my future, and I m currently attending a 4 year college studying communications. I have to thank NCT for offering the classes that opened my eyes up to what I truly have passion for. Yes, the school is receiving a lot of negative media right now, but I wouldn t have enjoyed my time at any other high school. While I attended the school it was still new only been open one year prior to my attendance, and having the options of this school helped prevent my parents from sending me to the Catholic high school. I recommend this school to anyone and I still talk about it with high regards to their academics, not just their athletics.

My son is currently a senior at NCTHS in the IT cluster and has done very well there. I believe his education at NCTHS has prepared him well for college. I am pleased to report that he was recently accepted at St Leo University. I am so glad we chose this school for him.
