Welcome to the Thrive Communities Jacksonville Campus! Thrive is a true homeschool drop-off program offering two days per week of hands-on, in-person classes. Students remain with their cohort throughout the day, and parents enjoy a consistent day off. Tuition is fully covered through Step Up (PEP/UA) scholarships for families across the Jacksonville area.

Location & Meeting Times

Meeting Day: Tuesdays & Thursdays

Time: 9:00 AM – 2:00 PM

Location: Our Jacksonville campus is located near the intersection of Arlington Expressway Service Rd and Alderman Rd in Jacksonville, FL 32211. We are situated minutes from Tree Hill Nature Center and Kona Skate Park. The exact address is shared when families schedule a tour or complete enrollment.


Our Grade-Level Cohorts

The Jacksonville campus has the following cohorts:

  • K-2: Green Group
  • 3-5: Red Group
  • 6-8: Blue Group

We keep cohorts small to support personal attention, relationships, and a connected community. Students remain with their group throughout the day to build consistency and friendship. Cohorts are capped at approximately 20 students, and once a group is full, we begin a waitlist.

Thrive teachers hold university degrees and have backgrounds in education, with many holding teaching certificates. Each subject – history, science, literature, and art – is led by a dedicated teacher.


Program Details 

Here's a list of FAQs about our program. If you’d like to talk with our Parent Ambassador, you can also reach out here.

Tuition & Step Up Funding

Jacksonville is a two-day-per week campus. We are a direct-pay provider on Step Up, with tuition and fees fully covered by the Step Up PEP and UA scholarships. Enrollment is open year-round, and if you join after the school year has started, we will make a prorated invoice for you.

Two Days Per Week

  • Tuition: $4,600 / year (Billed quarterly at $1,150)

  • Supply Fee: $200 / semester

  • Registration Fee: $75 / year


Socialization & Community

Building community and socialization is a core part of our mission. In addition to weekly classroom interaction, recess, and small-group activities, Thrive families gain access to a network of regional events.

  • Field Trips: Educational visits to places like science museums.

  • Community Events: Large gatherings, including our annual Back to School Splash, dances, and fairs.

  • Consistent Peer Groups: Students see the same peers each week, creating familiarity and allowing friendships to develop naturally over time.


Faith-Neutral Academics

Thrive works well for families who prefer to guide faith decisions for their household. Our program is faith-neutral and focused purely on academics, creating a safe environment that leaves matters of faith in your hands.


No Grades or Homework

Thrive is designed to support your homeschool while keeping parents in control.

  • No Required Homework: We do not assign homework.

  • No Grades: We focus on learning and engagement. Families are free to extend the learning at home if they choose, but it is never required.


Curriculum: Classical Remixed

Our curriculum, Classical Remixed, blends the structure of classical education with hands-on, project-based learning designed to get kids engaged with the content in a stress-free way.

Students conduct physics experiments, read age-appropriate classics, engage in discussions, and dive into immersive events such as our annual History Festival.

A day at Thrive includes:

  • History: Storytelling, discussion, and age-appropriate debate as students examine real events, perspectives, and decisions from the past.

  • Science: Hands-on experiments where students test ideas and learn how the physical world works through direct experience.

  • Literature: Guided reading and discussion that helps students understand the story and participate meaningfully at their own reading level.

  • Art: Period-inspired projects tied to the historical era being studied, exploring how art reflected daily life, beliefs, and values.

  • Movement & Recess: Time for physical activity, social play, and connection.

  • Small-Group Activities: Structured opportunities to build friendships and community.

Attending two days per week constitutes a full History, Science, and Art curriculum, leaving only Math and Language Arts to be completed at home.


A True Drop-Off Day

Unlike a co-op, Thrive is a true drop-off program.

  • No Volunteering Required: You do not need to teach, clean, or monitor recess.

  • Parent Freedom: You get a reliable day off each week to work, rest, or focus on your other children while professional educators handle the instruction.


Safety & Security

Your child’s safety is our top priority. We maintain a strictly vetted, closed-campus environment:

  • Background Checks: Every teacher, aide, and staff member undergoes a background check.

  • Closed Campus: No unauthorized visitors are allowed on site during program hours.

  • Trained Staff: Program Leads are trained in First Aid and CPR.

  • Secure Dismissal: We manage a safe hand-off process during pickup.
