Private Christian School for Students Who Learn Differently
Lighthouse Christian School was founded to provide a transformative educational experience for students who learn differently. Recognizing that traditional college-prep programs often leave behind children who require individualized approaches, we implement the principles of Multiple Intelligence Theory to tailor instruction methods to each student's unique learning style. Our small class sizesranging from 9 to 16 studentsensure personalized attention, with teachers who are trained to address diverse educational needs. Over two decades of service in Northeast Florida have solidified our commitment to academic excellence integrated with spiritual growth, as evidenced by our Bible-based curriculum and physical education programs.We prioritize creating an environment where students receive high school diplomas rather than mere completion certificates, supported by specialized services like speech therapy and occupational therapy. Our team, including an Academic Dean with 30 years of special education experience, works closely with families to develop individualized learning plans. Scholarships through state programs make our tuition of $10,000 annually accessible to qualifying families, while our eight campuses across Jacksonville and surrounding areas ensure convenient access to our mission-driven education.
