Montverde Academy 7th St, Montverde

I am truly greatful for the opportunity to study at montverde academy, however I can't deny the fact that it's a very "unfair" school to attend. They made their events "mandatory" for boarders here and the excuse that I heard alot of is that they want the students to support their teamates. Well, if you want us to support our teamates then why charge the boarding students $10 to go to a mandatory game? Furthermore, I think the primary reason that they "FORCE" us to go to the game is so that montverde academy looks good on the lense of sponsors like Gatorade, Under Armour, etc. But it's not just sport but theatre productions as well and of course we got charged. In my opinion, I think it's up to the student's right whether they want to attend the mandatory game or not. I remember having to wait for the soccer game to end in showering rain, it was miserable and they made students wait for about 50 minutes in that atmosphere and then let us go back to our dorm. I heard that this year, the school is charging straight to the tuition fees of boarders so that they don't see their students account get charged anymore. A nice way to cover up, so that's why comparing from last year, which was around $47,000 for boarders, this year, it's around $49,000. I just honestly don't think students should be forced to go to the game and if they choose not to attend then you give them disciplinary consequences for it. In their spare time, they could be doing something far more beneficial and it should be up to the study if they want to go to "YOUR" mandatory game or not and how they spent their time as boarders, considering how much money I have to reluctantly pay to go to the school.

I've never been to Montverde but I am really good at basketball and would have loved to go there and play. The coach at my school doesn't like me and hates on me so he never selected me. I live in Seminole County and Montverde is in Lake County it sucks. I love seeing Montverde do good because I live in Florida, and Florida teams are truly the GOAT.(Greatest of all time). Don't be hating on the owner for not defending you if your not an athlete. The owner obviously cares bout you if you were excepted in the school. I love Montverde and I love that they love sports as much as I do. I wish I could go there but that ain't gonna happen. I'm a senior and I go to Hagerty in seminole county. Oh well. Go eagles.

Yes, I haven't attended this school, but so far I am hearing great reviews about it and I REALLY LOVE IT. I want to attend this school next year so that i can't better my basketball game. I hope I'm eligible enough to get in, since I'm from Saint Lucia, things may be difficult.

I went to MVA for all 4 years. It is a Highschool like any other who have certain priorities. Those certain priorities can relate to the athletic department, how to keep running the school since it is essential a business. Montverde has many pros but also many cons. Durning my time at MVA I experienced many of the pros and cons and learned where I stood as a student on their priorities. Hearing on the news the recent issue involving a student's natural hair structure/ growth, was shocking. The student cannot decide how her natural hair grows. It was a very poor decision to essentially "call her out" on how her hair grows/ look. Yes there are rules but in the handbook there is no rule about natural hair. For Girls, the rule is no unnatural hair colors- which is understandable but there is no rule about how a girls' natural hair should grow. From this being on the news, Montverde has dampened their appearance. Let's hope they can fix it.

The staff here is amazing! 5 stars!

Ex's are always bitter. That student will be happier on the other side of the fence were the grass is greener. I like that the academy is multicultural. As children turn into adults those relationship will grow and become lasting. With social media outlets now you might find yourself visiting an old friend in china one day. Keep an open mind. Don't worry you won't forget English.

Thank you to all the amazing faculty!

wow so great and comfortable for me, i can't wait to join the school, my name is niyi from nigeria, am 14 years old am dark skin and am 6:8 tall, i play basketball here and i wsh to be part and continue my studies over their. thank you

Throughout my 4 years at Montverde Academy, I've learned so many life lessons that I will never forget. I'm very thankful that I was offered this opportunity to graduate from such a diverse and prestigious community.

The only reason people know about this school is because of their nationally ranked basketball team. Its the only reason people hear about this school in the first place. But the only reason im writing this is because i wanna see how the 'owner' is gonna respond
