Jupiter Farms Elementary School

Pretty terrible. Pulled my kids and sent them to private school. They are excelling. At JFCES, they probably would have fallen through the cracks only because they DONT have disciplinary problems. Principal is a joke. Condescending, as was the prior Vice Principal, who was eventually pushed out, probably after parents heard he was living out of his van. Seriously, some good teachers, some good families and a handful of bad ones. But the administration, especially the principal, are horrendous.

Terrible. They need a real guidance counselor that can address the needs of the students. They need a principal that can support children as well as staff. The one they have now is a great pretender.

Jupiter Farms is really a great school. The staff knows your child, not only his/her teacher. They make everything possible to accommodate your child. My son has ADHD and they worked with us to allow him the best experience possible. Mrs Wenst in particular is a wonderful teacher .She allowed my son to go upside down on the mat on the back of the room when he had "too much energy to sit still". Unfortunately we had to move, but JFES is still in our hearts.

This school has been great for my son. He started in kindergarten and is now in the 3rd grade. HOWEVER, it has been nothing but a nightmare since my daughter started school there. This school is terrible for kids with special needs even if it's just ADHD. They don't want to help your children. They could care less! The principle and VP don't want to be bothered. They don't adhere to plans and drag their feet in setting up services. What's worse, they lie on reports to make your child appear to be something their not (this is verifiable). I detest this school and what it has done to my daughter! The only way to get your child the serves they need is to hire a lawyer. That's pretty sad!
