1 out of 5 stars A Deeply Disappointing Experience - More…read moreFocused on Image than Individual Well-Being I attended Hillel Academy of Tampa Bay for 2.5 years, from late elementary into middle school. Unfortunately, my experience was not only disappointing -- it was harmful. Despite being branded as a Jewish school, many core religious traditions were inconsistently practiced. Even something as foundational as maintaining a kosher kitchen was not handled with the seriousness one would expect. But far more concerning was how the school handled (or failed to handle) student well-being, academic support, and mental health. I was forced to repeat a grade due to a single assignment that significantly affected my grade -- something I was never warned about. I wasn't given access to my GPA or any understanding of how I was being assessed, and I received no chance to catch up or make up for it. As a result, I had to undergo two full years of credit recovery to repair the academic damage. But what hurt most was how my mental health was handled -- or ignored. My time there pushed me into a deep depression. I ended up needing help from more than two therapists, including a social worker, just to begin feeling somewhat stable again. The school's mental health department was virtually non-existent and unhelpful when I needed it most. Academic support? Also lacking. I needed help with reading comprehension -- help that others briefly received for only two weeks, then never again. There was no real effort to provide long-term solutions or individualized support. It felt like unless you were already excelling, you were left behind. Worse still was the school culture. Students were often cruel, and advocacy was discouraged. Any time I tried to speak up for myself, I was either ignored or punished. The administration, particularly under Principal Allison Oakes, cared more about the school's reputation than its students. I was called delusional for trying to advocate for myself -- and even faced threats of expulsion for it. I am sharing this not out of anger, but out of necessity. If no one else is willing to hold this institution accountable, I may need to take further action. No child should go through what I did. A school is supposed to be a place of growth and safety -- not one that diminishes you and silences your voice. If I wanted to call the school a place where it can damage a child that's the name I would give it . Protect your child's mental and physical health by not sending them there or else you would end up like an angry parent and asking why you sent your child there .

The teachers and staff at Hillel are incredibly involved in each child's life. They regularly stop to share stories of the children's day, quickly address concerns, and try to involve parents to create a positive Jewish community as a whole. My son got into trouble just one time, it was addressed appropriately, but then many of the staff came to tell me (secretly) how proud they were of his misbehavior. They were actually happy he was comfortable enough to "act out" that one time. I would highly recommend this school to anyone seeking a strong community, a good Jewish education, and a loving/respectful environment for their children.

If you encounter any problems of any kind, they will close ranks and defend the school at all cost. They will side with the biggest donor, they will manipulate you to keep your tuition flowing. Take my advice, as a parent of two children who have attended CDS for the past 7 years, choose another school.

Furthermore, there's a notable lack of professionalism from the administration and office staff. Advocating for your child is discouraged, and if you do, expect rude and upsetting responses. Your child may be seen merely as a financial asset, with little regard for their actual education.
