A new and innovative educational institution is set to elevate the cultural landscape of Jacksonville. We are pleased to announce the opening of Global Outreach Charter Academy (GOCA) Arts, a visionary Arts Charter School dedicated to nurturing creativity, fostering artistic expression, and providing a comprehensive education to students in the heart of Jacksonville's Town Center Area.
