I'm convinced this is the best public elementary school in Hillsborough County. We transferred here from Carrollwood Elementary where we were very happy. When we purchased our new home, we moved school districts. Of course we were a bit nervous but in no time at all we felt right at home.
The faculty is out of this world. They genuinely care about their students. When we drop our boys off each morning, everyone is smiling and taking the time to safely get the kids out of the car. My son's 2nd grade teacher is so kind, patient and full of life. The Extended Day VPK program is amazing and very affordable. Just make sure you get on the waiting list ASAP - it fills up fast! My son in VPK has also been doing speech therapy at Schwarzkopf. I've been moved to tears at the progress he's made in 6 short months. Seriously, the faculty here is straight out of a fairytale.
I also love that the school is tucked back in Calusa Trace. It's away from all the busy roads and feels very safe.
This is a uniform school but nothing too strict. Collared shirts and khakis or jeans. If it's cold, they can wear any jacket and they often host non uniform days for $1. They also do other fun things to keep the kids happy and engaged like spirit days, dress up like a 100 year old for the 100th day of school, PJ day.
We are so happy to be a part of the Schwarzkopf family. I firmly believe God spent a little extra time on this school and the amazing people that fill the walls within it. read more
