A hidden gem in the heart of the Westside! This school has drastically improved so much over the years! There are so many extracurricular activities, clubs, and programs for the youth in our community. They truly do focus on educating the whole child! I love our neighborhood school!
Posted by a community member on 7/21/2026Complete garbage and should be shut down, they allow their teachers to hit students and also scream at students to shut up. I reported my son being hit and they did nothing about it,I have reported this school to the Department of Education. Your children are not safe here!! Beware!!! Please remembe
Posted by a parent on 10/28/2021My husband and I knew from day one that this school was at best, below average. The first day left me feeling uneasy. My daughters teacher was cold, uncaring and insensitive. Within the first week our kindergartner came home with a quarter sized knot on her head and scrapes on her hands and knees, w
Posted by a parent on 8/5/2014My child attended summer school @ Jax Heights & stated that they never want to see the school again. There was continual bullying. The issue was reported and nothing was done. The teacher was overwhelmed with behavior problems. Im sure she was unable to provide the extra help some of the children ne
Posted by a parent on 7/27/2013AWFUL! AWFUL! AWFUL! This was the worst school I have ever had to deal with. My son was in private school (Father's Harbor) also AWFUL! and was suspended because he finally had enough of a bullying situation that had been festering and fought back. Well, because I was not going to pay for priviledge

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI would raise legitimate issues to the principal concerning the mistreatment of my son by teachers only for my son to be pulled out of class and ridiculed by the principal with passive aggressive statements insinuating he was in more trouble. The only ones who were not drunk on power would be the 2 sweet ladies in the front office.The education is great here but the teachers do not create an environment conducive enough to support your childs social growth and development. There was one math teacher calling certain kids stupid when they got a problem wrong, my son hated that class because she would start yelling at him calling him by her husbands name. The favortism is unreal. My son had a 101% average in Bible yet he did not receive the award for it..Each year when it was given to other students teachers would glance at him, even the kids would say he had been robbed..mind you he is not a bad kid has received citizenship and prior to this school A-B honor roll. They like who they like and the leadership is to protect the teacher verses being non biased. I reached out to the teacher and principal asking why didnt he receive the award..no response given.. the next school year his bible teacher tells me he is the leader in that class and how he gets everyone excited about bible and helps to teach them things..that year again skipped over with no award.. I have another child but because of my son's experience I will not send her there and if your child is of color I would strongly recommend picking a different choice.Parent Review2mo ago - Center Academy-Westside Jacksonville

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy child currently attends at this school and I cannot say how I am so please with the kind of education my child is getting. It encompasses *wholistic* approach including the spiritual needs of my child...They are on top on education and they care for their students. We came from another Catholic School at Middleburg FL as well and our experience there is not pleasant. Very discriminating and belittling when my child proves that he will THRIVE! Not to compare, but I can only say wonderful praises for Sacred Heart Catholic School.Parent Review3y ago - Project Socks Wcal
