GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

We moved to Sawgrass Elementary school from an excellent private school and we've had an excellent experience. My son is enjoying the unique Spanish immersion program and may join the gifted program next year and my daughter has benefited greatly by the wonderful extra reading support the team has provided. They have many different fun activities and it's a great school culture and administration.
