Built in the 1970s, Jensen Beach Elementary is a public school in the heart of the community on a 20-acre lot at the cross between NE 24th Street and NE Savannah Road. Enrolling the youth from kindergarten to fifth grade, the school has, on average, 500 students. The modest number of children attending the school allows Jensen Beach Elementary to have a student-teacher ratio lower than the national average. This specific metric is among the many reasons why Jensen Beach Elementary is among the best-performing elementary schools in the county and is among the top 15th percentile statewide. It performs above average at the county level and statewide in English, math and science. During recess, pupils can enjoy a curated playground with several entertaining options plus stylish and colorful shade sails to protect them from undesired UV rays.
At Jensen Beach Elementary, curiosity is nourished, and students start down a positive educational path.

I have been a Kindergarten Teacher at Jensen Beach Elementary for 36 years. I have loved every year working with the children, watching them grow and change into readers, writers and mathematicians. The parents are so supportive and helpful with volunteering and committing to help their children achieve. I absolutely love working here.
