Honestly i think Jefferson High is a terrible school. When i first began attending this school all seemed well .Although by the time thanksgiveing came along and we began takeing state test that had nothing to do with what i was learning in class.Almost every student failed and yet (for me)im passing rerport chards with A`s and B`s. How is this ? I have asked this question to all admin but been told that those test are just the states requirement.(oh so thats not important rite) im very worried how am i going to go to a colleage when im not being provided with the right education We are acdemicly unacceptable but yet the district wants to close down GOOD SIDE No one can deny that we have a excellent fama and i just wish i could say that about the overall school but i cant

My Daughter a Junior at Thomas Jefferson says her school is amazing. They have the best band, awesome choir and well preforming actors in theater. Thomas Jefferson is a historical campus just northwest of downtown. Thomas Jefferson High School had bragging rights to a very successful alumni. In recent years the SAISD school District is suffering economic difficulties. The community would like to continue to produce students that will grow to become strong community leaders.

This school is horrible! Admin. lacks care and concern for students. I have been insulted and humiliated in front of my peers. Admin. is reluctant to take steps to involve parents. My mother has tried time and time again to become involved in my education but receives nothing but the empty indifferent apologies offered by teachers, staff, and admin. I would not recomend you enroll your child here if you care about their safety and well-being.

Tradition rich campus that provides the highest quality education in a real life setting. The historic campus inspired my student to take more pride in all aspects of his education.
