Terry Parker High School

My son has only been there one year so far but it was a great year. Teachers and staff are really involved and nice. They strive to involve families at special events through the year. Communication from the school has been very good. Recommend this school.

My son attended Merrill RD VPk-2nd grade and we loved every bit of it. The staff , principal and especially the teachers are all amazing! My son had some of the best teachers here who were actually passionate about their job! The teachers kept me informed and communicated very well. The only thing I would say is that the traffic and be ridiculous at times.

This is our second year at CTK. Overall, I have been very impressed with how they navigate the modern educational and social landscape. Our family is not Catholic, and I had not considered Catholic education an option until circumstances led me to a tour of CTK. Regardless of where you live, it is difficult to find a school that offers a high level of academic and social/emotional learning in a diverse setting. In Jacksonville, that seemed absolutely impossible until we stumbled across this school. I don't know how they manage to do that and achieve high marks on notoriously biased standardized tests, all while keeping tuition reasonable and bending over backward to make sure any family that wants to go to CTK can. While the academics are more challenging and aggressive than most of the schools we toured (and we have toured pretty much all of them), there is a good amount of support for differentiated learning. We have one disabled and one typical child- and they have both been served very well. They have been offered tools other schools (that charge more than 2x the tuition) have told us are out of reach due to "resources." There are things I would change about the school. But you won't regret putting this scrappy, happy community of educators and families diverse in thought, race, religion, and affiliations on your "to tour" list.

The teachers, check in staff, and coaches are so caring, friendly and helpful. My grandson has such a happy, stressed-free day of learning. He actually loves school and knows the importance of learning.
