Odd review.. This…read morehas to do with the integrity of this organization. Parked and a public park (Julian B Lane), I came back to find a baseball that had shattered my window. I filed a police report and went to school administration. They denied that this could happen as their kids didn't have a game on the given weekend. Later, they admitted loaning the field to a collegiate team, but would not pay for the window. It's my fault for not taking this to small claims court, as my window wasn't cheap.

They wait till the last minute to reach out to say that they will have to kick your child out . The guidance counselor Debra Austin is one of the worse counselors there is. She does not care. She will not communicate with you or meet with your child to tell them what they need to do to bring their grades up. If you don't like your job just quit.

I am so proud of the growth of this school that has occurred under our current administration/leadership. They are determined in their commitment and decisive with their strategies to make SJE better than ever. Middle school is tough socially...we all remember that! But the nurturing environment of the middle division helps the kids navigate these adolescent years. The teachers and administration foster the age-appropriate development for the kids, providing increasing autonomy as they advance through the program. Academically, SJE is un-paralleled. The children are challenged and leave prepared for any high school of their choosing.

My daughter applied for the IB program and got in for this school year which continues our family history of attending HHS. Drop off and pickup convenient off of Central Ave. Despite the school having a high attendance, traffic flows quite smoothly.

As as alum, I am a little biased. But as with any school, there is good and there is bad, This…read moreschool is in a historic part of Tampa and has a lot of history and standing. In conjunction with standard programs, Hillsborough has offered the International Baccalaureate program since 1994. If you graduate from this program, you receive some nice benefits (i.e. AP credits, Bright Future scholarship). Even if you attend standard classes, you'll still get a quality education. Positives: The teachers are pretty responsive and generally keep parents updated on progress. Drop off in front of the school is relatively easy, even with the crowded parkjng situation. Some drawbacks: AC units aren't always in the best shape (inconsistent heat, AC, and humidity through the building). The bathrooms aren't the best (missing doors, no TP). I'm not sure these are just issues at this school, could be a countywide issue. Overall, experiences here have been positive and I can strongly recommend the IB program. Go Big Red!
