Often referred to simply as Boca, Boca Raton is a premier suburban paradise with all the luxury and charm of an upscale community. The South Florida town is famous for its affluent neighborhoods, grand Boca Raton luxury homes, vibrant cultural scene, and lush landscapes. But the charm and exclusivity are only part of why families move here. The other piece of the puzzle is the strong school district. If you are considering living in Boca Raton, here are five private schools you will love for raising your kids.
Pine Crest School
The Pine Crest School is a major selling point for Boca Raton homes for sale – and with good reason. Featuring a Fort Lauderdale and Boca Raton campus, the Pre-K-8 school is one of the country’s oldest and largest independent schools. Students enjoy a rigorous academic program featuring seasoned class material, advanced courses, a STEM program, state-of-the-art laboratories, and a fine arts program. If your child is athletically inclined, the program also boasts sports programs, including soccer, tennis, swimming, wrestling, basketball, and baseball.
Boca Prep International School
A renowned IB World School, Boca Prep International School hosts students from over 70 countries in Pre-K through 12 grades. It is a highly rarified International Baccalaureate institution that allows students to interact with people and cultures from across the globe while receiving world-class instruction. In addition to a robust curriculum, students enjoy Golf, Soccer, Swim, and Theater Academies.
Saint Andrew’s School
The only boarding school on this list, Saint Andrew, is one of the few schools in the state that offers both day and boarding options for Pre-K through 12 students. The preparatory school is internationally recognized and highly ranked in the country for its distinguished program, collaborative learning environment, and top-shelf athletics program. Students enjoy lacrosse, tennis, basketball, and more.
Grandview Preparatory School
Grandview is a small private school serving Pre-K through grade 12 students. The small size is a plus because it allows for a lower teacher-to-student ratio, and the average class in Grandview only has 12 students. Through the highly individualized curriculum, students are taught to be problem solvers and innovative learners who can contribute to society. Among other perks, students enjoy a travel experience program that sees them tour South America and Europe.
Donna Klein Jewish Academy
Donna Klein Jewish Academy is located on the largest Jewish campus in the country (100 acres) and is a recognized SACS, FCIS, and FKC institution. The co-ed K-12 school focuses on education and Jewish values, teaching students to be effective, respectful, and well-rounded in all aspects of life. Much of the curriculum is built around “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People” concepts and their applications in class and everyday life.
