Imagine School At North Port consistently demonstrates strong academic performance, with graduation rates ranging from 88% to 94.4% in recent years, significantly higher than the state average of around 86%.

This school has helped to mold & educate my grandchildren, in a way that I see as wonderful, they love their school, teachers and friends. This is a school that cares about your child, even if you out on the weekend and you see a teacher or even if they see you first, they acknowledge you. Thank you ISNP for helping mold wonderful young adults. Close Quote

The leadership of academics and athletics are very unfamiliar with the aspects of their job. They lack the proper experience to take this school in the right direction. Over the past year , there has been a steady decline in all aspects of the school from Admin. Many teachers are excellent, they just lack leadership. Close Quote

Love the teachers but administration has gone downhill. They are in over their head and very inexperienced. Poor choices are being made left and right and it is very concerning. Close Quote
