Colossal Academy jacksonvillE

At Colossal Academy Jacksonville, students complete the traditional high school curriculum and earn a recognized private school diploma.

But how they learn is anything but traditional.

Our students benefit from:

• A 3:1 student-to-teacher ratio with highly qualified educators
• Innovative, relevant, hands-on learning that develops problem-solving, communication, critical-thinking and public-speaking skills
• Dual-enrollment to earn both high school and college credit
• Build & participate in real student-run businesses
• Internships, job shadows and mentorship from local professionals
• Practical electives including personal finance, career and college planning, entrepreneurship, life skills and personal growth classes - helping students better understand themselves, manage stress and emotions, build healthy relationships, and make thoughtful decisions about their lives
• Time on the water with Captain Wayne for students pursuing their captain’s license or just interested in fishing and marine life.

At Colossal, students do not simply prepare for life after high school. 

They begin building it now.

Whether their next step is college, a career, the skilled trades, entrepreneurship, or another meaningful path, students have opportunities during high school to discover their interests and talents, identify a direction that feels meaningful to them, gain real experience, build relationships with mentors, and begin creating a future they are motivated to pursue.

The result is a more seamless transition from high school into a meaningful and productive adult life.
