LEE ELEMENTARY MAGNET SCHOOL is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the HILLSBOROUGH school district, located in TAMPA, FL with about 317 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 5th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 23 teachers, LEE ELEMENTARY MAGNET SCHOOL has a student/teacher ratio of about 13:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

LEE ELEMENTARY MAGNET SCHOOL, located in the V.M. Ybor neighborhood of Tampa, Florida, is a long-standing educational institution within the Hillsborough County Public Schools district. As a magnet school, it is designed to provide specialized academic programming that draws students from outside its immediate residential boundary, often focusing on unique curriculum themes such as technology, arts, or accelerated learning pathways to foster student engagement and achievement.

The school is deeply integrated into the historic fabric of the Tampa community, serving as both a center for academic development and a neighborhood hub. By participating in the district’s magnet program, Lee Elementary emphasizes a structured, high-quality learning environment aimed at preparing its diverse student body for middle school success while encouraging parental involvement and community partnerships.
