Jones College Prep High School Reviews


Posted By: parent Quality Score: decline 2009-09-16 “It has the best teachers, students, & greatest staff that any parent could ask for. WHY NOT BRAG ABOUT JONES COLLEGE PREP. I love this school and everything it has to offer.” Posted By: student Quality Score: 4 2009-05-31 “I am a graduate of JCP and the atmosphere that Jones provides is a breeding ground of individuality. The student body and faculty are very diverse, which provides an array of culture to the small educational institution. This school is not for everyone, but if you are looking for a place that supports and encourages a well rounded individual, this is your haven.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: decline 2009-05-27 “My child is just about to finish freshman yr at JCP. The school is not as rigorous as other selective enrollment schools and the students are not pushed to excel. There is a 'good enough' attitude that does not well serve all students. My child rejected other selective enrollment schools to attend JCP--not sure we made the right choice. Not many students are on the high honor roll.” Posted By: student Quality Score: decline 2009-04-06 “When it comes down to choosing a selective enrollment high school, a few but an important number of students want the same thing: a small individualized learning environment where new faces are never seen as just another freshman/transfer student, but rather a inctellectual friend. Our school is not divided by race, class or sexual orientation; our school has no cliques, but rather we are all just a huge group of friends that care deaply about eachother. Our counselors and teachers give students the selective and specialized attention they deserve because of the small class number. At this point I am writing a plea. There has been talk that they are going to change jcp, so that it could be half selective enrollment and half neighborhood enrollment, and also making the classes much, much bigger. We must keep up the quality education @ jones; let's keep what's working and change what's not.” Posted By: student Quality Score: 5 2009-03-30 “I am a former student, class of 07. Because there is a text limit I will be prompt. I have many memories that span a course of four years at Jones College Prep and I am happy to say that most all of my memories are great ones. Looking back, I am thankful for every professor, coach, and faculty member that encouraged me to find my potential. I can honestly say that JCP prepared me for my next step in higher education. I can also say that JCP did not fail me as it allowed me to become a well rounded person. It also allowed me to view the world from a different perspective. Student body is diverse, the location is great, lots of clubs, the arts programs are amazing, and courses are just what you need to prepare for the next level in your education.” Posted By: student Quality Score: 2 2009-01-05 “I currently attend Jones. I was expecting the world when i accepted, and turned down many academically superior schools to attend this Jones. I feel incredibly uncomfortable and out of place here. The classes are lacking in rigor, and thought the teachers offer support, I am shocked students need it. The school should be thought of simply as a fall back and if you have other options you should consider them greatly.” Posted By: student Quality Score: 5 2008-02-12 “I currently attend this school as a junior and I must say it is a great school. The couselors, teachers, and staff care deeply for every one and each of the students here. They have now started a 7-7-6-6 plan throughout the year that will take action in the year 2008-2009 and even though it is too long to explain here, once parents or students hear it, they fall in love with it. This is an exceptional school and as a student I would definitely recommend it.” Posted By: former student Quality Score: 5 2006-06-16 “Academic programs are top notch for a public school. The programs give an adequate education for kids to attend a regular four year college. The school has a strong music program, a great art program, and has plenty of extracurricular activities for the students. Parents are involved in their local school council.” Posted By: student Quality Score: 4 2006-03-25 “This is my first year at Jones. It is very diverse and for the most part I like it. This is not the athletics types school, we do well but not at the championship levels. They have very tough work but greatly plans you for college.” Posted By: parent Quality Score: 5 2006-01-13 “This is my sons first year at Jones College Prep and I must say the teachers are ready and willing to help students that are struggling.The falculty were so kind to my son and I as we went through a personal situation.The courses at Jones is not easy but,with the help of teachers,counslers,and other falculty members they will help your child acheive excellence.Jones has safety and disciplinary rules like any other school putting the needs of the students and falculty first.The teachers,counsler,psycologist,attendence,and all the falculty has shown me how caring they are for the students and helping them in any way the can to do well in school. I am very proud that my son attends Jones they have so many programs to offer the students.Any student that is accepted at Jones should consider it an honour and a privilige the love there is huge .” Posted By: former student Quality Score: 5 2005-07-23 “I've attended Jones for 4 years, with completion as of 05. This school is great as has a lot of oppurtunities. Great teachers, great principles, wonderful students, no fights, and most of all great education status.”
