I think this school is fair ,teachers are ok.I have noticed that the students and teachers are arrogant ,stuck up, snotty,and rude. Iam not sure if its the location,bounderies,that most parents work or is a status issue,maybe is that the parents are too busy working to give their kids everything that they forget to teach their kids manners, to be polite and respect others. Mrs Quintero is a great assistant Principal,she seems to cares about the school and the students.I do think that they should have a manners class for parents,teachers and students.In the morning when i am walking in ,in the PE court, the halls, as i drop off my kids, i have said good morning ,hello ,good bye to parents,teachers and students and have no respond.People have no manners in this school.They have clics and bulling is common in this school because of the clics.My daughter wants to go back to her old school,she is not happy here.I would if i could, i dont want my kids growing up around this kind of people.I guess is true what they say 'the more money you have, the less values you possess'.
I am extremely happy with this school. My son is in 8th grade and he loves his school. We have been getting great services from Jane S. Roberts ever since he was admitted there. Principal ,vice-principal, teachers and counselors together created a great educational atmosphere where they all belonged to a family .Vice Principal Ms. Natali is always around making sure that kids are attending the classes . She also makes sure that no outsider stays in the school , without a valid reason. Whenever we approached her for help , she took immediate action and tried to accomodate all our needs. She is always caring and always stops to listen to the students. I am so happy that my son is in good hands and at the same time feel bad that he has to leave the school next year !!
I am now an alumni of Jane S. Roberts K-8 Center. I am currently a Senior in high school. I attended J.S.R since Kindergarten through 8th grade. To this day, I am forever grateful for having the opportunity to attend this school. My teachers were helpful at all times, and always there when I need them most. They wanted to instill a passion for learning and that is exactly what I received from them. I enjoyed all my classes. Yes, the school is limited in electives, but what you learn inside of class, and the memories created are worth more. I have not gone back to visit since 2008, but my J.S.R. still has a special place in my heart. The staff, and faculty were kind and sweet to all. I cannot thank J.S.R. enough for steering me in the right direction. It is definitely an "A" school in my book. All schools have flaws, J.S.R. isn't perfect, but it's strong values in education make it stand out.
The quality of the teachers and the education has deteriorated since a few years back. Teachers have very bad attitudes and this os why the school has lost may students to new schools around.
My son is getting a quality education and enjoying his elementary years.
This school is not that great of a school. The teachers are okay teachers, they teach but not the sufficient. My Child is not an ESE student, she needed a promotion and the school denied to help my child advance and be placed in a better grade. I as a parent consider this a C school.
Dude, this school is awesome! I'm currently in eighth grade and have been attending since kindergarten. The teachers are amazing, as are the principals and assistant principals that we've had. It's not the best middle school, but it kicks butt for a k-8 school. Go jaguars!
My two daughter has been in this school since kinder. Most teachers are excelent educators, and alway challenge the students to do better every day. I am very happy with what my daughters have learned so far in important courses such as Math,science, and Language arts.
I am pleased with this school's performance, when it comes to teacher's and faculty helping with you with your situation. The principal and her assistants are very cooperative, and visible at any time of day. The pick-up and drop-off for the kids have somewhat been resolved. Although it could be hectic sometimes. Overall I pleased with the school. Parents should be more involved with the school, this way they can express their thoughts, and ideas to them. Don't expect if you don't give.
I'm very happy with this school. My children started attending JSR August 2008 and they are very happy. They are in Kindergarten and in 8th grade.
