The worst school for kids with special needs. The staff are not trained to work with kids with…read moreAutism. My child was abused by a staff member and DCF had to open a case to get them to address it. Please don't send your child here. You will regret it.

This school is PERFECT for my son! He's starting his 3rd year there & LOVES it! He's never liked…read moreschool before & even went to the best elementary school. The small class sizes, individual attention and no assigned homework has made a HUGE difference in our family life. On the rare occasion he doesn't finish his work at school because of a doctor/dentist appointment, he comes home & immediately completes his work. He NEVER cared about his schoolwork & homework was ALWAYS a struggle until he started at Center Academy at St. John's Bluff. I am so thankful to have options such as this school because some kids just don't do well at large public schools and need different accommodations that other schools can't offer. Plus we have NEVER had a bullying issue or anything even close to that. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Center Academy if your child has unique needs.

My now 15 year old daughter attended Landmark for all 3 years of middle school, and my youngest…read morechild is in the 7th grade. Like many schools in Duval, the staff and teachers struggle with a large census of children. Its hard to provide quality with a quantity of I think 1800 students this year and slightly less as many in the years previous. I believe the education provided by teaching staff is decent to good and the school feels safe to me. Yes there are fights, but consider the population vs amount of fights. The hallways are monitorted well and alot of thought is placed into the structure/dynamics of the crowd flow. All this being said, if you were to judge the school by the attitude of the front office, the school would recieve an F. I know that the front office of every school has to deal with alot of frustrated parents and children,.. but that is the stipulation of any customer service job. Voice inflection is venomous, they cut you off mid sentence, and are frequently confrontational. I work in a hospital as a nurse, and if I treated patients the way parents and children are treated by thier front office, I wouldnt last a week.

im currently in this school but im going out for a trip thankfully. Im gonna explain this school on…read morehow this is widely considered the terriblest school ever ive been to. 1. Experiment i have been in this school for 2 years now im in 7th grade. and it has been HELL in here, none of the staff does anything for you. none of the teachers does anything for you. nobody does anything. and 2. Being a Bus rider if youre a bus rider. oh boy, some bus drivers are acting like you are playing music to loud and will loudly ask you to turn down the volume like abuelita from coco. is really annoying, and sometimes they always make a stop just to make a kid move to another seat, or is because somebody is screaming or talking to loud. 3. Bathrooms another thing is the bathroom, is genuinely super disgusting. somebody placed like 100 napkins in the stalls or toilet, and somebody threw a trashcan in the toilet. Some people fight, Some people just piss around the floor or around the toilet seat making them not able to seat perfectly. and another thing is the teachers not letting you GO TO THE BATHROOM. when you ask them can you go to the bathroom is either required with a hall pass (which is stupid) or they just decline forcing you to wait for 50 minutes straight just to go to the bathroom. and some of them are such jackass that they just ask you "why didnt you go during transition" because people in their are always weird that they either take a picture of you. or just straight come in the stall to see you peeing. 4. Teachers and staffs. This is gonna be a long paragraph. The teachers are SO ANNOYING. They are horribly rude or they just dont teach at all. And when you get confused on a question and ask for help they dont even care or they re-read the same question saying "read the questions carefully" like what??? that doesnt do anything, some teachers are nice like Ms. Matter, and Ms. Seymour. (for me) theyre both my favorite teachers. Staffs doesnt care about this school at this point. Pretty sure this is the worst school of my life, The dean doesnt care on what happened to you (Example: getting touched innaporptialy, getting beaten up, or getting threaten) i remember one of the deans said that if you get touched innaporptialy its your fault. and when you make a statement and give it to them they just dont read. they just pretty much ignore it and wont care much about it. The staffs are so disrespectful, they either scream at you, or just straight up pull you or grab you forcefully leaving a big mark or something. A kid wanted to fight me, My mom reported it to the dean and guess what he did? NOTHING, and is not even shocking because he was acting like he couldnt hear my mom at all because of the announcments. One more thing thats super important is that they say "We care about your mental health!" Thats not true. I had therapy in 6th grade because of me wanting to kill myself because of this school. My therapist actually helped me so well that my suicidal thoughts went away. And someone told me that the health teacher said "being skinny is good and drugs are bad" or something like that. as somebody whos skinny that pissed me off. 5. What do i do after reading all that? Do NOT bring your child to this school. Even Kernan Middle school is Better than this. (I dont mean by bring them to kernan. just find a different school with good reviews) and If you want your children to have suicidal thoughts, get into bunch of fights, have staffs or teachers to scream at them for no reason, and make them fail grades. This is the perfect school, Heavily not recommended for healthy kids.

As a proud dad, I want to recognize Stanton College Preparatory here in Jacksonville, Florida. My…read moreson has talents and abilities that truly impress me -- ones I wish I had myself. But this isn't about me -- it's about him, and about the school. Stanton has been an incredible place for him. He loves the campus, the environment, and the opportunities it provides. If I could suggest one thing, it would be even better lunches -- he has a broad palate and would really appreciate it. At the end of the day, I'm simply grateful he's in a place that challenges him, supports him, and helps him grow

I'm proud to be part of the Blue Devil alumni. When I went to Stanton in 2009 - 2013, this school…read morewas ranked #1 best high school in the nation. Although it's well-known for its challenging academics and rigorous standards, it prepares the students very well for college and graduate schools. In fact, shortly after I graduated, Stanton was ranked #4 for the most challenging high school in the Southern US. The school offers honors, AP, and IB classes. Stanton offers various honor societies that support the students in every field, ranging from math society to English society to Spanish society to music society and so forth. Besides being academically gifted, Stanton also offers athletic programs to provide students with physical activity and morale. Some sports include cross country, wrestling, tennis, lacrosse, and so forth. The students that go to Stanton are very competitive. They usually perform higher than average. As a result, this school has far above test scores and results. Fun facts: there are more females than male students, the ratio of student to faculty is 19:1, and the school is very diverse. Overall, Stanton was a great experience for me. It really prepared me for college and beyond. Its excellent academics truly made my college years less stressful. I had a hate-love relationship with Stanton. There were times that I felt like I wanted to drop out of school. But there were times that I focused and dedicated myself to finishing the school. My foremost advice is if you can truly stay on task and do your work, then this school is right for you. Stanton is designed to challenge one's mind. It provides good teachers that help and encourage you through 4 years. The work is overwhelming, but anything is possible with hard work and dedication. Remember, hard work pays off. Start off with honors classes. If you excel in those classes, move to IB classes. AP classes are mandatory.
