SJCA Enrollment

Welcome to St. Johns Classical Academy!
We hope that you will explore our website and learn more about SJCA’s extraordinary program. SJCA is a tuition-free charter school chartered by Clay County School Board. 

What SJCA is:

1. St. Johns Classical Academy is a Classical Education school with a specific and well-defined purpose.
2. SJCA is right for your child if:
   1. You feel too much time in your child’s current school is dedicated to technology, testing, fun and games, non-academic instruction, or socialization.
   2. You are looking for academic rigor, high-level reading material, instruction in virtue, studiousness, and traditional teaching methods.
   3. You want your child to be well-prepared for an intense college experience.
   4. You agree with and support SJCA’s vision of the Parent-School Partnership found in our Parent/Scholar handbook.
   5. You understand that a child’s behavior is primarily the responsibility of his or her parents.

What SJCA is not:

1. St. Johns Classical Academy is not a reform school.  If your child is having discipline issues at their current school, they will likely have discipline issues at SJCA.
2. St. Johns Classical Academy is not an academic recovery school.  If your child is having academic issues at their current school due to poor study habits or refusal to complete homework, they will likely have the same issues at St. Johns Classical Academy.
3.  St. Johns Classical Academy is not a typical public school.  There is no BYOD policy here, and smart phones and other internet devices are not allowed on campus.  Uniforms are mandatory.  Discipline is rigorously enforced, sometimes requiring parental assistance.
