A Jacksonville native and graduate of The Bolles School, Donna Jacoby has dedicated more than 25 years to the children in our Michele Block Gan Yeladim Preschool and Kindergarten.

Donna graduated from Southern Methodist University with her bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts/Communications. Since joining our JCA family, Donna has served as a substitute teacher, kindergarten assistant, administrative coordinator, and associate director of our early childhood education department. Donna says she loves working at the JCA, being around children every day, and forming relationships with the families who come here.

Donna has two grown children who are both Gan Yeladim graduates. When she’s not busy helping children learn through discovery at our JCA, Donna spends time with her husband and six cats.
