Mission Statement:
The mission of Morning Star School as a Catholic Special Education School in the Diocese of St. Augustine is to provide meaningful educational experiences for learning challenged students in an atmosphere which promotes Gospel values while nurturing love and respect, the personal development of every child, creativity, and the joy of learning.

Our History:
When Morning Star School was opened in the Riverside section of Jacksonville, FL in 1956 its purpose was to provide a Catholic education for children who were physically handicapped. The school operated as an agency of Catholic Charities and was staffed by the Sisters of St. Joseph of St. Augustine.

In 1968, the student population had outgrown its Riverside facilities. At that time the school was moved to its present location in the Arlington section of Jacksonville.

The enrollment continued to increase, and in the early 1980’s it was determined that the great need in the community was to provide an appropriate educational environment for children with specific learning disabilities, attention deficit disorders, dyslexia, and mild emotional handicaps. The focus of the school evolved to serve these children.
