Yulee High School is a comprehensive four-year school located in Yulee, Florida. The original school closed in 1965 when Florida desegregated public schools. Following desegregation, students were allowed to choose between attending West Nassau or Fernandina Beach. [4] The current institution opened in 2006, although Yulee had been the site of a high school earlier, from the 1930s to the 1960s. The initial graduating class of Yulee High School, in 2007, had a 71% graduation rate, 23% of whom graduated with honors.
