Jule F. Sumner High School is a public high school in Riverview, Florida, United States. It opened in 2020 and was built to relieve overcrowding at East Bay High School in Gibsonton and Earl J. Lennard High School in Ruskin, though it also took some students from Joe E. Newsome High School in Lithia and from Durant High School in Plant City. The school is named after Jule F. Sumner, who was an early settler of the Southshore area.
Sumner High School served grades 6 and 9âÂÂ11 beginning in the 2020âÂÂ21 school year. In the 2021âÂÂ22 school year, the school supported grades 7 and 9âÂÂ12. In the 2022âÂÂ23 school year, the school supported grades 8âÂÂ12. Beginning in the 2023âÂÂ24 school year, Sumner High School became exclusively a secondary school (grades 9âÂÂ12). This was part of the school's Academy 2027 program to relieve overcrowding in middle schools in the area before a new one is built.
The Stingrays' football field is one of three in Hillsborough County to have an artificial turf field. Sumner High School's fight song is "The New Colonial March" by R. B. Hall.
