Sulphur Springs K-8 Community School, Tampa | Fees, Rankings, Address, Admission, Vacancies, Reviews & More

This is one of the most horrible schools in Hillsborough County! No one is professional, there are only a few teachers that REALLY care for and want to see the kids Excel. I wouldn’t recommend this school to ANY PARENT that really want his/her child to learn. Everybody in the main office wants to be in CHARGE. I have NEVER met the principal. They don’t release report cards to the students unless a parent come to conference (I work so I can’t always make it to conference). I have yet to receive my kids report cards ??. I just really really really dislike the fact that my kids have to attend this school. I’m definitely looking into other options for schooling cause they are not learning at Sulphur Springs Elementary and the teachers don’t make those kids feel like they can Excel. Thumbs down to this school (why make a school go from k-8? The kids definitely won’t learn cause it’s just too many students which means the teachers can’t give each student that one on one time that he/she may need in order to be successful. I think the ENTIRE staff should be fired and hire a new staff that knows how to keep it professional and really care about these kids succeeding in life.

I see everyone thinks this school is horrible now. It wasn’t when I went there. Use to be up to 8th grade, my brother graduated from 8th there (when they still had that type of program). My favorite teacher, ever, was there, Mrs Miner (49er). She was caring, took time with you, and gave you the “dickens” when you were bad. Course that was also when Florida still had mostly all Floridians! Before the northern migration. Even when I left for college Tampa was still shy of 1,000,000 people. The beach was still Crystal clear, the lakes had water, and we still swam in the “big” pool at Sulphur Springs. Wonder what happened to North Blvd Rec Center? Any way, time marches on, schools go to ???, new ones are built and lakes disappear. We call it progress? Hmmm.
