Learn moreWestchase Elementary School is a genuinely strong, verified result
Westchase Elementary School carries a 9/10 GreatSchools rating and an A- on Niche, earning an almost perfect academic-progress score (9 out of 10) from GreatSchools -- a meaningfully strong result and a real draw for families with younger children specifically choosing Westchase.
Alonso High School reads as solidly average, with real extracurricular strengths
Alonso High School (also known as Braulio Alonso High School) carries a 6/10 GreatSchools rating and an A- on Niche, with total enrollment around 2,600 and a 24:1 student-teacher ratio; it's known for an award-winning theater program. That's a more middling academic result than Westchase Elementary's, though genuinely walkable from West Park Village (see best-areas) -- a real convenience even where the academic rating runs average rather than top-tier.
Confirm the specific zoned school for any address
As with every suburb in this batch, confirm the specific elementary, middle, and high school any address is actually zoned for with Hillsborough County Public Schools rather than assuming a single citywide quality level -- Westchase Elementary's strong rating and Alonso High School's more average one are both real, but they describe different schools in the same community.
