I absolutely love University Christian! From the dedicated administrative team to the amazing teachers, it's been an incredible experience for our family.The administrative team at the school is truly exceptional. They are always welcoming, approachable, and ready to assist with any concerns or questions we may have. Their professionalism and commitment to creating a positive and supportive school environment make a world of difference. They make sure that every child feels safe and well-cared for, and their communication with parents is wonderful.But it's not just the administrative team that makes our school exceptional; it's also the wonderful teachers. They go above and beyond to ensure that our children receive the best education possible. Their passion for teaching is evident in their approach to nurturing our kids' curiosity and helping them grow academically and socially. The teachers create a stimulating and inclusive classroom environment, and we are so grateful for their dedication and hard work.My children have learned so much, made great friendships, and developed a love for learning at this school. I couldn't be happier with the education and experiences they're getting here. It's clear that the school, its administrative team, and teachers all work together to provide a nurturing and enriching environment for our kids. I'm so thankful to have found such an incredible school, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to any parents looking for a place where their children can thrive and be happy.

Our son attended from 8th grade to 12th and excelled at UCS. The teachers and staff were wonderful and truly cared for my son's well-being and education. I grew up in the Jacksonville public school system and was in no way about to put our child through that. From day 1, the students were very friendly to our son and even invited him to play sports, join the Beta Club and even the National Honors Society - none of which we were even thinking about when we joined UCS. He also took several computer training and programming courses and was even awarded a STEM scholarship for college. UCS also issues students iPads that he was able to keep at graduation. Although being shy as first, he has made many lifelong friends which not only includes students but teachers, coaches and staff as well. We also love watching the various sports teams which usually make it to the playoffs. It's really exciting to attend these events. Our son even played in DOAK Campbell stadium for the State Championship. Starting our school search, we met with and physically toured "many" of the private schools in Jacksonville. We did a lot of research and a lot of praying before making the decision to attend University Christian. We have had a great experience are so thankful of the decision we made. Our son has been accepted to Stetson, University of West Florida, Jacksonville University and was awarded merit scholarships and a STEM scholarship which pays for most of his private college tuition. We are so grateful for our experience and relationships made at University Christian School.

Excellent school with great teachers, administrators, and coaches who really care about your son or daughter. We moved to the area from out of state and it's been nothing but a top notch experience for our son. You won't find a better school for the price. Great leadership from the top down. Highly recommend!

University Christian School is a great place to have your children excel in their learning by incorporating traditional curriculum with a Biblical world view and how to prepare our young adults and children for real world situations. The classes are smaller size than the average public school which works well for teachers and students in developing a cohesive learning environment. Personally, I have witnessed a significant growth and improvement in both of my children while attending this school. I would encourage anyone looking to find a better educational community for their family to invest in UCS. UCS does accept scholarships, has an enormous amount of athletic programs as well as extracurricular activities to fit all interests and skill sets. Love God & Love People.

Huge mistake & I regret ever sending our 11 yr old to UCS. We transferred after one year as he was bullied & exposed to things I didn’t expect from a “Christian” school. This school’s main priority is athletics not academics. The teachers I dealt with were caring & loved to teach for the most part but they seem overwhelmed. Many of the students attend only because it’s safer than some of the public schools.
