Middle School At Parkside

Paragon Academy is truly a gem of a school! From the moment we joined the community, we’ve been impressed by the caring and dedicated teachers who go above and beyond to support each student. The school provides a safe and nurturing environment where our children feel valued and encouraged to grow both academically and personally.The academic program is rigorous and well-structured, challenging students to reach their highest potential. Beyond the core curriculum, Paragon offers excellent enrichment programs that keep students engaged and excited about learning. Whether it’s through the arts, hands on science, or extracurricular clubs, there’s something for every child to explore and enjoy.One of our favorite aspects of Paragon Academy is the Moral Focus curriculum. It’s not just something that’s taught—it’s lived out daily by the entire staff. The values of respect, responsibility, integrity, and perseverance are consistently modeled, helping students develop strong character alongside academic success. It’s clear the staff truly care about shaping well-rounded individuals who are prepared for life beyond the classroom.We are grateful to be part of such a wonderful school and highly recommend Paragon Academy to any family seeking a well-rounded, values-driven education.

My son just graduated from Jackson Christian School. He is well prepared for college, scored very well on the ACT, and had lots of opportunities to participate in sports, Quiz Team, and the Praise Team. Although no school is perfect, we are grateful for the wonderful experience he had at JCS!

My Daughter has been at Queens for 3 years and has done really well. The academics are way ahead of the public schools. The classroom sizes are small. The kids are taught to respect each other. Every teacher my she has had has been amazing. I wouldn't send my child anywhere else. They even have financial aid programs to make tuition affordable to everyone. I think almost 40% of the students receive some type of financial aid.
