Both my children have attended Tamarac Elementary for the last 4 years. The teachers here really care about their students and their needs as far as education and anything else they may need help with. I have made many great relationships at this school and would recommend Tamarac to anyone looking for a great school for their child!

After four years of quietly observing the trajectory of J.P. Taravella High School, I feel utterly compelled to state what has become painfully obvious: this institution remains fundamentally deficient in every measurable metric of excellence. As a family that prioritizes refinement, rigorous academic standards, and impeccable conduct, we find the administrative staff's persistently dismissive and confrontational attitude to be entirely unbecoming of professionals entrusted with developing the next generation. Furthermore, the physical infrastructure exists in a state of deplorable neglect, creating unsafe environment that completely lacks the basic decorum and prestige one expects from a proper educational establishment. It is exceedingly clear that the school’s systemic mediocrity has merely calcified into a permanent culture of administrative apathy; though I suspect the administration lacks the basic cognitive capacity to even comprehend the advanced vocabulary in which this grievance is written, making Taravella an absolute disappointment for anyone who values true discipline and distinction.

As a sub who has had many assignments at this school, I would not recommend this institution. The disruptive students hear a terrible that they hold the learning environment back. Screaming, wrestling, walking on tables and throwing items across the room. There is one security guard who is a very decent guy and tries to help, but I feel like the administration gets annoyed when you call for security. I personally think the learning environment and bullying situation are terrible at this school. A lot of students here experience terrible parenting thus their behavior and do not fear consequences thus their willingness to misbehave on a grand scale. I feel like the administration just wants subs to put up with the terrible destructive behavior and say nothing. Just my experience. The fact that one must go through a metal detector says everything.
