We believe in your child. The Guardian Catholic Schools, St. Pius V and Holy Rosary Catholic schools, rank among Jacksonville’s oldest and most respected faith-based elementary educational institutions. Since 1921, we have provided a safe haven where children in grades Pre-K to 8 have the opportunity to learn and grow academically and spiritually, regardless of their economic background. Generation after generation, these schools have strengthened the character and confidence of thousands of students by creating a foundation for success – in school, and in life.
