Love JES.. my daughter is in her last year (5th grade).. I am so sad to leave at the end of the school year. She has been in Dual Language since K. We chose to go to our zone school over the gifted route (JES was not gifted then). She has done amazing and has been challenged and excelling both in school and self esteem!! The teachers and staff are like a family. They are caring and keep the kids on track. They use small group instruction so every student gets what they need.

I wasn't sure what to expect from the beginning of the school year, but as time past and my daughter would look foward to going to school. I realized that the teachers are there for the right reasons. Ms Cardona and Mr Nardelli have been a huge blessing in in my girls life. They are passionate about their students and I give them and Mr Smith (Principal) the highest regard and I appreciate their hard work they have put into the students. As for the population of 54% hispanic, absolutely the majority of the kids will speak spanish only! Thats what makes JES so special, they are doing their best at teaching Americans Spanish and Hispanics English. I think they're doing a fine job at it. Also teaches the students a great lesson in cultural diversity, and that's something we need more of. Thank you JES, and my other two children will be on their way shortly!!!

I have two children at Jupiter Elementary School and have been there for 4 years. I absolutely love our school! The teachers are amazing. There are great opportunities to be involved through the PTO. We have a fantastic educational garden and a butterfly garden was just added. There are a lot of great activities for the kids through out the year. We also have a dual language program at JES in which the children have a half of day in English and half of day in Spanish. It is a lottery to get into the program for Kindergarten and children can be emerged into the program up to second grade. Wether you are looking into the dual language program or not it is a terrific school and you will have a great experience there.

Jupiters best kept secret! A wonderful school full of happy kids. The teachers care and work hard to push the students to achieve. My child has been treated with respect and kindness and is now graduating . We will miss this school so much! Everyone from the cafeteria staff , to the office personel, the teachers.....are so special, having been to a lot of schools I feel qualified to compare. The principle Mr.Smith is the BEST, he is always present and knows the students. If all schools were as great, we would have no problems with our educational system. Thanks So Much everyone at Jupiter Elementary!

This is our first year at Jupiter Elementary and we feel it is a better than average school. My child loves the teachers and doing the work that is required. With reference to the Principal, he has been a huge presence in the school and we appreciate that he is hands on. As for the additional staff, they are always willing to help whenever they can, even if it is interrupting them. They understand that is what they are there for. I have recommended this school and will continue to do so!
