The Jacksonville satellite office is located at Northside High School in the Commons area of Jacksonville. Northside High school is a 9-12 school built in 2000.

The Jacksonville Office serves science and math teachers of Onslow and surrounding counties providing them with CBL and MBL technology workshops, CBL/MBL equipment on a loan basis, technical support, and technology curriculum integration support.

Through generous funding from The Department of Education the Jacksonville satellite office extends the services of The Science House providing high school science and math teachers access to training and equipment including laptop computers, graphing calculators, and a variety of probeware. Research has shown that the use of such equipment promotes exploration and helps students see technology as a tool for learning.
