I attended Jack E. Singley Academy and overall, my experience was positive. The best part of my experience was the diverse student body and the opportunities to get involved in extracurricular activities. There were many clubs and sports teams to choose from, and I was able to find my niche. The teachers were also supportive and provided a good education.

The worst part of my experience was the crowded hallways and classrooms. It was difficult to navigate through the school at times, and some classes were overcrowded. Additionally, the food options in the cafeteria were limited and not always appetizing.

If I could change anything, I would suggest improving the facilities to make them more spacious and modern. I would also recommend expanding the food options in the cafeteria. Overall, I had a good experience at Jack E. Singley Academy and would recommend it to others.

Singley Academy has made me the capable scholar I am right now, not just through education but through the clubs and friends I have met throughout the year. Every year I faced difficult challenges such as sleep management, schedule management, or even simple things like assignments and fights with friends but those challenged taught me how to use my brain to decipher the problem and find the solution. The challenges I have faced not only has it made me stronger but it has also made me sharper which is a crucial skill needed in the real world.

Jack E. Singley is a good school but there are definitely some things that could be better such as the way schedule and handle some programs and how they schedule in general but overall I enjoy it.

Review Jack E. Singley Academy

My experience with Jack E. Singley Academy was amazing. I loved how they had different programs to choose from, known as specialties and we studied about it. I chose Hospitality as my specialty because i wanted to get information about the work field and customer service before i started my job back in 2021. It was very helpful because we had a cafe in there known as the Fire Bird Cafe. We were able to work there and get some experience on how it is to handle customers and although it wasn’t the easiest in the beginning, it created a real sense of emotion on how it is to be part of a working environment and as we all know, it is not always easy working for customers but it’s all about the experience and how we are able to multi-task, communicate, problem solve, be creative, work as a team, and a lot more. Overall, Jack E Singley Academy helped me become the person I am today and will continue to be part of my life as I improve and pursue new things.

The school isn't a bad place. There are clubs and classes that I love taking and that would help me later in life.

Hi my name is maritza turcios and I am a student at jack e singley academy enrolled in a dual credit who attend to North Lake campus to take my dual credit classes. This year I will turn a senior at singley academy , but thanks to the help of my counselor and teachers I was able to pass the hardest parts of school but from the best part is that I learned how to challenge myself and overcome the challenges that where getting on my way which sometimes this caused me to give up on some things that where frustrated for me but thanks to the advices that each teacher and the counselor gave me I was able to clear my mind a give the best version on myself on not letting my frustration bring my victory that I have done over this pass three years .As I continue moving towards my path I would recommend the new students who are starting there school year 2023 to 2024 to not give up on the things if they need help to ask the teacher there advice which it will help them be successful in the year.

The students are very colorist, anti-black, and often very rude. A few teachers are blatantly racist. The rest of the teachers are phenomenal teachers.

I absolutely love the administration, always so kind and encouraging. I would like see the counselors be more involved. The counselors don’t really tell you about scholarships or certain stuff until last minute. If anything I would have to hear it from the teachers. The teachers are also absolutely amazing and very supportive.

I really liked the teachers and staff, they are very engaging, especially the CTE programs. It has really helped me narrow in on what career path is more for me. For instance, in my freshman year, I was enrolled in Culinary and hospitality, but after a year I decided it wasn't for me and switched specialties to Robotics manufacturing. Once I changed it was a game changer I saw how more involved I was and was excited to learn more about the program. But on the other hand, I would have liked to receive more information about scholarships and opportunities. For example, at the beginning of the year, our college counselor came in a lot to help us with FAFSA and the Dallas County Promise, but after that, they stopped coming and less information was known, especially for students like me that are first-generation students going into college. Even though they send emails about scholarships, it usually gets lost in the rest of the emails, and some of them don't pertain to me.

It was great school and the teachers really connected with the students. I think it was very worthwhile attending and getting an education there. I think that the specialized classes also help you see which career path was good for you.

I really believe that Jack E. Singley Academy is one of the best schools to try and be in. Jack E. Singley Academy is a bit like a college in a way since they have to choose the students that get in the school since we have to apply. The opportunities that they offer here are incredible that help students have a brighter future. Singley is not like the other high schools around here since it is built to be a more professional setting and help us get used to being in a workplace setting. The specialties that are offered here also include the opportunity to have a real life internship in the area that we are studying in. Since our school focuses more on being a professional setting we don't have any sports or music as extracurriculars, but we are allowed to go to our home school and participate in their sport and music programs.

I had a unique great experience in my four years at this high school. My teachers were kind and supportive to me in my studies as well as understanding and patient with me in my studies and finishing school work since sometimes unexpected events will happen. I met and made new friends in this school that were funny and good people.

I've thoroughly enjoyed my experience here, the teachers are nice, there are plenty of opportunities (for whatever you are looking for), and the school is kept in really good condition. It's been a great place to learn in for the past four years.

Jack E. singley located in Irving, Texas 4601 N MacArthur Blvd, Irving, TX 75038. 2018 of middle school I was in eighth grade my school took a trip to the “best” high school to set you up for success. When I first arrived, I automatically thought this was my dream school. This is a place of education where I can feel safe and learn about my future career. The teachers, the students were incredible the way the upperclassman educated and showed us what they do, in there every day learning at Jack E. singley academy. I was thrilled to submit my application paper. I get excepted I’m very happy and grateful for the opportunity I received. 2019 what is my freshman year of high school I was scared just like any other kid. I noticed not a lot of the people I was little school with attended my school, because it acceptance was ran through a lottery. The diversity is horrible. Students are racist. Teachers only care about themselves. Safety is nonexistent. The food is an abomination.

A couple of things I enjoy about Jack E. Singley Academy is the mannerism and perseverance of the teachers. The teachers and educators there truly wish the best for their students and it is definitely noticeable. The staff is very welcoming, calm, and exciting to be around because you know that you would have a good experience with them. I also enjoy that even though Singley is more of an educational-focused school, extracurricular activities are available to students. Transportation is also provided for those students because there are no sports on campus. I also like that there are multiple varieties or rather "specialties" for students to choose from and that there is a lot of diversity within the school. Although I would like more school spirit or pep rally assemblies, so Singley isn't seen as a preppy school as much as it already is. I also believe more field trips would be beneficial for the students and staff, so there is a little bit of freedom within the year.

I chose to apply to Jack E. Singley Academy for the program of Culinary Arts and Hospitality and it is one of the best decisions I've ever made. The experience may differ from person to person but for me it was amazing. They are a very hands-on style of education which is very beneficial for the students in the future career-wise.

This is a high school offering a different kind of high school experience. Signature studies in medical, culinary, art, criminal justice and computer science

Review Jack E. Singley Academy

My experience at Jack E Singley Academy was very academic focus, but the students present in the school lacked the average school spirit. Compared to other Texan schools, Jack E Singley lacks school spirit, but it is because we have no sports or fine arts.

It's very diverse in both culture and ethnicity. Teachers and staff are all professional and overall friendly with students. It's been very fun learning in this great school.

My experience at Jack E. Singley Academy has been the best. When I enter campus I know that I will get out of there knowing something new. When I enter the building I know that I can study without having to worry about my safety. Finally, Jack E. Singley Academy counts with professional and hardworking professors that are there to help out when a student needs it.
