"This school is absolutely awful. you are DOOMED if you go to this school. If could I would give it ZERO stars. As my mom once said about this school...BASURA. (Means garbage in Spanish) If you want to throw away the fun years of high school....Come to Poinciana High School!!! you can just chew gum or burp you would get an automatic suspension for 5 days. If you don't want your child to graduate then...Come to Poinciana High School. Where only 30 percent of students graduate. This years graduation was only like 5 seconds long from how few people graduated. Also most of the students there are...troublemakers. Not a good environment for any kid to learn both educational wise and manner wise. Now I know why there were an F school recently....NO FUN or LEARNING. What a waste of 4 years...no... one hour...no...one second in this pathetic excuse for a school."

"I Spent 4 Years at poinciana High School, and I can certainly say that those were the best four years of my life. I got Involved in sports and as many activities as possible, which enhanced my high school career. My best memories are of things I used to do in Poinciana, regardless of what many people might say, Poinciana is and will always be the best High School. - John E"

"You get what you give. You cannot expect teachers to do everything; it starts and has to be reinforced at HOME. My 2 son will be Poinciana grads and the 1st one graduate with 33 college credits. He now has a Computer Eng. degree. 2nd one is on his 4th year. The more challenging the class the better prepared for College your student will be. Parents have to get involved, support the school and encourage their child to take challenging classes and WORK HARD. Parents need to Thank Poinciana Teachers and staff. I found Poinciana to have a great Academics Program, Outstanding NJROTC, Sports Program and many other fine Programs. Poinciana High School is a Quality learning environment. The staff is inspiring, hardworking and friendly. They work with what we give them, talk to your student and school and see the get what you give at work."

"Part 2 of 2: Why do you thing like School like Osceola school of arts and other types of school have lots of HAPPY KIDS running around, that's because those kids attending that school are at common grounds with their Teachers/School. Parents Should also be part of your child education, NO! NOT ONLY IN ELEMENTARY.... join your Kids HS PTA, if anything this is the most important part of your kids education, Make it count! If we Create HAPPY KID, that in turn will create HAPPY TEACHERS, which in turn creates a better environment in the class, creating a better SCHOOL, SCHOOL DISTRIC, Equaling a better generation of kids! KIDS take control, and TRY YOUR BEST, that way you can never say: "If only I would of" Niulka Laboy, Photographer & Graphic Designer In Osceola for 21 Yrs!"
