A Letter from our Preschool Director (Updated February 14, 2025)
At Jacksonville Classical Academy, we are proud to offer an introduction to Classical Education through our Pre K Jet Prep Program, where young hearts and minds take flight--laying the foundation for students to soar through their academic journey in our lower and upper school. Our goal is to help each child reach their greatest potential – intellectually, physically, socially, spiritually, and emotionally. Our state-certified teachers are experts in early childhood development, guiding students through activities that explore concepts in early literacy, mathematics, science, and history while enhancing fine motor, social, and emotional capabilities.
We offer a five-day program (Mon-Fri, 8 AM - 11 AM) and a three-day program (Tues, Wed, Thu, 8 AM - 1 PM), with extended care available for an additional fee.

To be eligible, children must live in Florida and turn four on or before September 1 of the school year they apply.
