Testimonials

“Our experience has been wonderful this year. We were hesitant and a bit nervous to try this approach to education, but we are so glad that we made this switch. JFCA is unique in that they offer a school environment that I feel is extremely important for middle school-age children. At the same time, our satellite school days allow me to be the involved parent — unlike traditional schools where you rely completely on others to educate your child and are basically left in the dark about what your child is learning and how he is doing. This method is so different from homeschooling, namely because I don’t have to create a curriculum or worry whether or not I choose the best one for my child.”

– From a parent of a middle schooler

“Our son’s preschool experience left him afraid to make friends, non-trusting of teachers, and hating school. However, within two weeks, he was absolutely THRIVING in the caring, Christ-centered environment that JFCA has created. The community at JFCA cannot be beat.”

– From a parent of a kindergartener

“After the first week at JFCA, our son asked us why we had not been “doing school” this way the whole time! We transferred from another private school to JFCA after his sophomore year, and he spent the final two years of high school here. It was a beautiful fit for the entire family and allowed us precious time with our son while better equipping him for college.”

– From the parents of a JFCA graduate

“When my daughter was ending elementary school from a 5 day school we noticed our family unit was out of balance. My husband worked nights and did not see his child after school. We realized how few hours a day we were in her presence, influence her and spend time talking to her that was not rushed.  Then add in the time that her teachers spent with her and her peers spent with her, those lost hours can be eye opening. When we reevaluated what was the most important to us as a family and what lifestyle we desired to have before our child leaves for college we were led to look into alternative schools, which ultimately lead us to JFCA.”

– From the parent of a graduate

“After my oldest son started at JFCA, I decided to join the teaching team and I’m so happy that I did! I enjoy coming to work every day. I don’t dread it like I did in other schools. I love my coworkers and the families that attend as well. Everyone is kind and peaceful to be around. I love that I get to talk about Jesus all day every day! It is part of who I am and it is so comforting to share and teach children about the importance of having Jesus in their lives.”

– Elementary School Teacher

“Before the pandemic, I had never taught in a hybrid school. It was definitely new to me, but I found that I love it! I love partnering with parents who are very involved with their child’s education and are willing to work with them. The students are the best part of my job, they are so enthusiastic about learning. I love watching them grow and learn a little each day. I especially love challenging students to think creatively in their writing and love seeing them discover what they are capable of.”

-Elementary School Teacher

“I had retired after 30 years in the public school system but wasn’t ready yet to fully call it quits. I knew it was God at work when I found out there was an opening for teaching the very same subject I taught in public school. I love working in an environment with fellow believers, before I would have been chastised for any mention of God, but now I get to boldly proclaim His name! I love the tremendous support we receive from the administration, the parents, and the church. It feels so much like a family atmosphere. I also truly love seeing students grow in their walk with Jesus.”

-High School Teacher

“We moved to the area from Jacksonville and discovered JFCA for our three daughters. The school was a perfect fit for our family. Before I knew it, I joined too! I love seeing the way students and my fellow teachers build each other up through God’s truth. There are so many ‘lightbulb’ moments. The students always make me smile and teach me something new everyday!”
