I'm currently a Junior at JHS and I think the best things they have to offer are their college readiness opportunities and academics. There are constant reminders and opportunities for leadership, internships, tutoring etc. The clubs are very involved in the community and most teachers provide good support and connections. A decent variety of AICE and AP classes are available, and MOST of them have great teachers who make it easy to pass exams. That being said, the food is horrendous most days, and not enough budget goes to the cafeteria staff to provide quality meals. Teachers do more work with helping students than the administration does in my opinion, but the Guidance counselors are great!

During my time at Jupiter High School, I have had many unique opportunities to really expand my learning and reach out to my community. This includes the advanced, college level classes they offer, such as AICE and AP classes. The AICE diploma is especially an amazing opportunity and totally achievable to get. Jupiter High is also great at giving it's students plenty of volunteer opportunities, by updating them frequently as to what is currently happening. They also give the students the option to take part in many different nation recognized organizations, for example the National Honors Society. Overall, Jupiter Community High School is a great place to challenge yourself in many different ways while achieving that high school diploma.
