Unfortunately, this school has serious issues that need urgent attention. Many students are struggling to learn effectively, as there seems to be a lack of engagement and support from the teaching staff. Additionally, there are concerning problems related to drug use that dont appear to be adequately addressed. For the sake of the students, I hope the administration takes these concerns seriously and works toward meaningful improvements, though they probably never will. If you graduate from Florence, good luck making it anywhere in life because itll be hard with a Florence education.

This is not a safe or suitable environment for any child especially when the school fails to conduct proper background checks on its staff. Our children deserve better than this. Their safety, well-being, and education should always come first.

Graduated in 2013 and struggled so much in college because I didn't learn anything from my four years at Florence
