Do you know who the typical Southside Estates Elementary School student is? If you’ve been to our legendary campus, you know we actually have no typical student. At our school we celebrate the fact that no two students are the same. We offer a unique tapestry of children from different cultures, ethnicities and learning styles. Then we give each one the individual support and attention needed to be successful. It’s a winning formula that makes us one of the most treasured schools in Duval County. With a roughly 70-year history our best days are right now.

Our Southside Estates parents tell us more than anything they love our focus on the whole child, and our schoolwide emphasis on growing good people as well as academically successful students.
Why Students Love Southside Estates
Because we make learning fun, we offer a wide range of in-school and afterschool
enrichment through art, music. P.E., media, scouting, gardening and more. Students might get an opportunity to play violin, play basketball and play up their math skills all in the same week. Despite the endless activities to discover, our teachers still create calm, nurturing surroundings so children can learn at a higher level. Southside Estates students know our expectations of them as scholars and citizens and in turn, expect more from themselves and their classmates. The result is a disciplined yet joyful environment where successes are cheered and each day is welcomed with exciting challenges. We’re also an inclusive school so everyone feels welcomed and cared for. Neurotypical students, children on the Autism spectrum, academically gifted students, – we work hard so everyone feels all
at home here.
