Summary

Apopka High is a public magnet high school in Apopka, Florida, serving grades 8-12 with a total enrollment of 3,455 students. The school is part of the Orange County School District, which is ranked 32 out of 67 districts in Florida and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Apopka High performs better than the district and state averages in Biology 1 and US History, the school consistently underperforms the Orange County and Florida state averages in most subject areas, including Algebra 1, Geometry, and 10th grade English Language Arts. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 32% of Apopka High students were proficient or better in Algebra 1, compared to 63% in Orange County and 60% statewide. Additionally, Apopka High has a high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 30.9% to 44.5% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

Interestingly, nearby schools like Maynard Evans High and Acceleration West perform similarly or better than Apopka High in various metrics, despite having a higher percentage of students from low-income families. This suggests that factors beyond just funding may be contributing to Apopka High's relatively lower academic performance. The school's high chronic absenteeism rate may also be a contributing factor to its underperformance.

Horrible experience so far. Enrollment took them 6 weeks to process, schedule has been a disaster and the violence my daughter sees every day is horrific! She is being targeted and was vested by a group of kids. Teachers and resource officers don’t care and don’t do anything! Close Quote
