About Us 

Jefferson Classical Academy of Florida is the state’s first tuition-free statewide classical school, serving students in grades K–6. Rooted in a time-honored curriculum of literature, history, and the arts, we partner with parents to cultivate wisdom, virtue, and clear thinking through a flexible virtual model. 

We are seeking teachers who are excited to create a rigorous and nurturing classroom environment that prioritizes student learning and social-emotional development. ACCEL Schools uses a cutting-edge 21st-century curriculum, which can be accessed online and through a variety of traditional methods.
