History

Growth in the northeast corner of St. Johns County, primarily in the Ponte Vedra Beach/Palm Valley areas during the 1970s had warranted the construction of a new school. The school, which opened in 1984, is the second public high school built in St. Johns County. The school first opened as a Junior/Senior High School, but as the growth of Northwest St. Johns County rose the school eliminated its Junior high sector. Nease was originally designed to accommodate up to 1,500 students, however, enrollment has historically been at above capacity. Bartram Trail High School opened in the Fall of 2000 to alleviate overcrowding. Due to the continual growth in Northwest St. Johns County area, Ponte Vedra High School was built and opened in the Fall of 2008. [5] Tocoi Creek High School opened in Fall 2021 to serve students residing in the World Golf Village area.

From the 2022-23 school year, Allen D. Nease Senior High School is zoned to serve the communities of Nocatee, Ponte Vedra, Palencia, Kensington and Las Calinas. [6] The main feeder schools are Palm Valley Academy, Valley Ridge Academy and Pine Island Academy. Other students come from Pacetti Bay Middle School.[ citation needed ]
