Jupiter Christian School is fully accredited by the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI). ACSI accredited schools are recognized and accepted nationwide by other accrediting organizations, including the Florida Department of Education. In every facet of our school ministry, from finances to facilities, academics to athletics, ACSI accreditation and its standards of accountability ensures our JCS community of our ongoing commitment to moral and academic excellence in everything we do. Jupiter Christian School's elementary program offers our youngest students a safe, nurturing environment. We strive to support their growth by offering a curriculum that focuses on the basics, including phonics-based reading, penmanship, spelling, Bible, memorization, mathematics, science and history. We also include weekly elective classes such as Spanish, band, computers, music and art. Children are receiving a well-rounded education beginning in the early grades. Our students also participate in various academic competitions. We consistently have children earning first place ribbons in academic competitions that take place within Palm Beach county and beyond.

School Reviews:
August 20,2012 - We have 2 boys and a girl attending JCS.Since Dr Jim Coleman took over as President he has started implementing a better ( we feel) focus on academia. He has also managed to bring in better qualified tutors while maintaining the Christian values we hold so dear. Dr Coleman is certainly raising the bar here! I would have no problem recommending Jupiter Christian School to anyone.*-Posted by Parent *
