COLUMBUS RESIDENTIAL JUVENILE FACILITY
COLUMBUS RESIDENTIAL JUVENILE FACILITY is a public high school that is part of the HILLSBOROUGH school district, located in TAMPA, FL with about 49 students offering grade levels from 6th Grade to 12th Grade. With about 4 teachers, COLUMBUS RESIDENTIAL JUVENILE FACILITY has a student/teacher ratio of about 12:1. 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.
The COLUMBUS RESIDENTIAL JUVENILE FACILITY, located at 9502 E. Columbus Dr. in Tampa, operates under the jurisdiction of Hillsborough County Public Schools. It is a specialized educational setting designed to provide continuity of learning for youth who have been placed in a residential juvenile justice program. Because these students are temporarily removed from the traditional classroom environment, the school focuses on providing an individualized academic curriculum that meets state requirements while addressing the specific needs of students navigating the justice system.
The facility’s educational program is structured to help students maintain their academic progress, earn credits toward graduation, and develop essential life and vocational skills. By coordinating closely with the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice, the school emphasizes a supportive, structured environment intended to reduce recidivism and foster successful reintegration into the community. Through the Hillsborough County Public Schools framework, the facility aims to provide high-quality instruction that prepares these students for future educational or career opportunities upon their release.
