About us
Orange County Public Schools is recognized as one of the top urban school districts in the nation – the 8th largest school district in America (4th in Florida) with 210 traditional schools, approximately 206,000 students and over 24,000 employees. OCPS students enjoy equity and access to a wide variety of educational opportunities, including magnet programs with specialized curriculum from Kindergarten to 12th grade. Offerings include aviation and aerospace, laser photonics, agriscience, theater and performing arts, International Baccalaureate, international studies, law and finance, engineering, science and technology, foreign language, criminal justice, medical technology, veterinary science and other specialties. OCPS is also known for encouraging students to pursue college credits through Advanced Placement courses. In fact, OCPS high school graduates pass AP exams at a higher rate than students in Massachusetts, the highest scoring state in America. Career and technical education programs are infused in middle and high school curriculum, where students can explore career options, earn industry certifications and even receive an AA degree when they graduate. Every year, more than 100 graduates from OCPS high schools are accepted into top-20 colleges and universities around the country, as well as U.S. service academies. The district also boasts a 97.9% graduate rate among its 20 traditional high schools. By 2020, every OCPS student had a laptop or digital device as a part of an aggressive and innovative digital learning program. The Center for Digital Education and National School Boards Association ranks OCPS among the top 10 on its annual Digital School Districts Survey. Currently, every secondary student has a laptop. OCPS celebrated its 150th anniversary in December 2019. Thanks to Orange County voters and taxpayers, 50 new schools have been built and more than 120 school construction projects completed since 2003.

✨ The Magnolia School is fostering an entrepreneurial spirit in its students by having them create handmade gifts (like beautiful greeting cards) and running their own on-campus gift shop! This program provides valuable real-world experience and fosters important skills like creativity, teamwork and business management. Kudos to Ms. Day for her innovative teaching approach! #ocps #ocpsmeanssuccess #WeAreOCPS #OrangeCountyPublicSchools #orangecounty #florida #education #students #innovation #inspiring

🎓🌟 Last week, Orange County Public Schools celebrated our remaining seniors who missed graduation in May with a small (but very cool) ceremony we call our Rainbow Graduation! Grads across the county walked the stage at Colonial High School to receive their diplomas — wearing their own school colors of course (that’s where the “rainbow” comes in). Congrats, Class of 2024! #ocps #ocpsmeanssuccess #WeAreOCPS #OrangeCountyPublicSchools #orangecounty #florida #education #classof2024 #graduation
