Sarasota County Schools is pleased to announce that 18 of its schools have been recognized as Schools of Excellence by the Florida Department of Education. Section 1003.631, Florida Statutes, requires the State Board of Education to designate a school as a “School of Excellence” if the school’s percentage of possible points earned in its school grade calculation is in the 80th percentile or higher for schools comprised of the same grade groupings (elementary, middle, high, and combination) for at least two of the last three school years. This program was developed & created by the Florida Legislature back in 2017. Schools that initially qualify for the designation retain their designation as a School of Excellence for up to three years, at the end of which they have the opportunity to renew the designation.
