Jordan Glen School is located in Archer, Florida, eight miles west of Gainesville (home of the University of Florida) on 20 acres of field, orchard, and woods that provide a safe, physically beautiful environment, in itself an exceptional learning resource. The integration of the outdoor space into the total atmosphere of Jordan Glen sets us apart. Walk around our grounds once and it will be apparent why our school is such a special place.

The philosophy of Jordan Glen is based on the observation that even though there are universal and predictable sequences of change in children, each child is unique with an individual pattern of timing and growth. Our commitment is to an educational program that values individual differences, exploration and discovery, meaningful academic study, sportsmanship, and personal and global responsibility.

We feel our excellent staff gives us the opportunity to understand each child’s specific creative, social, emotional, and intellectual needs. We consider ourselves advocates of children and childhood. We would like our children to enjoy their time spent away from home and feel that we exemplify our belief that the joy of living and love of learning need never be separated.
