William R. Boone High School is the city of Orlando’s first high school and has a long-standing history of preparing its students for academic success. Boone has a strong reputation for academic excellence and has helped develop the minds of many of our past, present, and future leaders. The curriculum at Boone was established to prepare our students to think critically, to act responsibly, and to perform successfully in a technological and multicultural society. The learning environment at Boone will challenge the creative and analytical skills of our students as well as help to develop an enduring sense of pride and commitment to our community. Our students are encouraged to become involved in our many extracurricular activities to further enrich their experience at Boone and to help them become well-rounded individuals. Our faculty and staff leaders share both a passion for learning and teaching. We believe that every minute of every day is an opportunity to learn and to prove that a Boone student today is a Brave leader tomorrow!
