This is my 6th year in Seminole and what I love most about Seminole is I love the close knit community: it works to foster between everyone.

The best thing about SJHS is the staff and faculty at SJHS are more like a family than any other place I've ever worked. Everyone is willing to work and support one another in all of their endeavors.
