United We Shine! United We Soar!
Our School
Educating the leaders of tomorrow since 1958, San Jose Elementary School is located in a quiet neighborhood in Dunedin, Florida. It is adjacent to Hammock Park. San Jose is a neighborhood school with a warm, family atmosphere and caring staff members.
If location is everything, then proximity to the Pinellas Trail, Hammock Park, Dunedin Nature Center and the Gulf of Mexico makes our school a "natural choice."
**NEWS FLASH**... MARK YOUR CALENDARS!!!!
Don't forget....Wednesdays are early dismissal days for Pinellas County Schools. San Jose students will be dismissed at 1:35 on Wednesdays.
Every Friday is a SJE Recycle Day Cans and Paper/Newspaper can be recycled here. Receptacles at the San Helen Drive Entrance.
