very family oriented school that excels in education and teaching children healthy eating and a relationship with Christ. Lots of extra curicular activities including piano, guitar, drama, soccer, golf, gymnastics, and choir! what more can you ask for. My daughter loves her class and teachers and I will not consider another school!

This is a very good school. It is small like a family with teachers that care about the students and do as much as they can to help them to learn and grow.

I have my daughter in Sawgrass Adventist School sice 2007, and she loves her school. It isw a safety and healthy environment. They are offering now in 2009 a great extracurricular program. The Christian environment and principles taught there are priceless for character building.

If you have not visited Sawgrass Adventist School recently, you need to stop by for a visit. They have added a new after school program that offers team sports, piano and band instruments lessons, computers, arts and crafts, and drama. The school has undergone an interior makeover and has enhanced instruction with more hands-on activities and materials. In addition, the staff is committed to helping each child reach their full potential through individualized instruction.

I think that the school is a good place if you want a seventh day adventist education for your child, but the building itself needs some work.

Mrs. Simmons, the vice principal, loves the children, strives for a high quality of learning, knows how to instruct the students very well, and the students respect her. In addition, the parents love her as a person and for her dedication to the school. Here is a tip on the current principal; watch out for her. Overall, the school is a Seventh Day Adventist small school. It is known best when it comes to winning medals for science projects in competitions against other schools. This is what really impresses me. It is a small great school. Even though it is not a science school, they should be because this is one of their strong points as a school.

I now have three toddlers, 4-8 years old, attending the Sawgrass Adventist School and so far my wife and I are satisfied. A small Christian school, pre-K to 8th grade with less than 100 students. I'm not sure of the highest level of teacher qualification but I know teachers are encouraged to continually upgrade their education and skills. There is a new principal this year, a former New Yorker who impresses me so far. She has good plans for the school. I hope most, if not all, can come to fruition. The school is private, of Seventh-day Adventist affiliation. The new principal has brought in a heightened sense of discipline among the students with greater attention to uniform compliance and overall student behavior. That's good.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
