National Recognition for Jacksonville, Florida Public Schools
We just want to extend our congratulations to the Jacksonville Area Public Schools. Quite often, public schools get a lot of bad press (much may be well deserved) and we want to point out a few of the success stories.
Once again, Jacksonville, Florida has two schools ranked in the top 20 public schools in America according to Newsweek Magazine.
Coming in at #3 is Stanton College Prep and at #15 is Paxon School for Advanced Studies. A third local school to make the top 100 at #78 is Nease High School in St. Johns County, between Jacksonville and St. Augustine serving the Ponte Vedra Beach area and Northern St. Johns County.
These are just a few of the outstanding schools in our area. We're proud of their accomplishments and want the world to know it!
Of course, we are also proud of the numerous high achieving private schools like our daughter's alma mater, Providence High School.
