Elementary school is a time of growth and discovery. Students strengthen their skills in reading, writing, math, science, and social studies while learning to think critically and work collaboratively. Along the way, they build confidence, curiosity, and character that prepare them for middle school and beyond.

Middle School

Jonquil Preparatory Academy will be adding 6th grade in 2027-28, and then one grade per year through grade 8. Middle school is a time of personal growth and exploration. Students deepen their understanding across subjects, applying higher-level thinking and problem-solving to real-world ideas. With a strong academic and moral foundation, they’re prepared for the challenges of high school and the opportunities ahead.
