Back to the topic at hand. I only know what I've read in the paper and witnessed first hand.

I know the test/achievement scores for the HS are very high... best in the general area.

The facilities and equipment are top notch....more like a modern college campus than HS.

The kids seem to be very well rounded, involved in the community, and The Villages also gets involved in the school - athletic booster, help in the classroom, etc.

I'm no expert, but I would say getting a job at the Villages charter high school would be a primo education job. It also seems like it would be a good place to work.

Hopefully, you will get more direct answers from those involved with he school/staff.

Good luck to you.
