Well, if you're talking about Lake Mary you're talking about Seminole County, the same school system my daughter is in...and I moved out here specifically to put her into a Seminole county school. If you go online and check out the ratings of the Orange and Osceola county schools you will see that most of them, unless they are in a high income area, are either failing or hovering around a C grade. There's a site (that I can't remember now) where you can get all this information for free. That's how I decided where I wanted to live when I came back to Orlando.
And last I heard, Jones High School was celebrating their making a D grade this year (more power to them), but I wouldn't call that doing pretty well. Oak Ridge High School and Evans High Schools are D & F rated schools and the last I heard, they're closing Hungerford Prepatory High School in Eatonville (a highly rated magnet school) due to low attendance.
