The Top 5 Reasons Parents Send their Kids to St. Johns County Schools:

Here are 5 reasons parents should choose to send their kids to our schools:

1. St. Johns County Schools ranked in the top 14% of the nation in "What Parents Want" in public schools.

2. Our schools received first overall ranking out of 67 countieson FCAT scores

3. On the Florida Comprehensive Achievement Test (compared to other districts in the state) Grade 3, 4, and 5 took first place in both reading and math. Grade 9 and 10 took first in reading. Grade 11 took third in science. The list goes on and on!

4. The School System has received an A grade eight years in a row (one of only 10 school districts in the state)

5. And, lastly, we are lucky enough to have Dr. Joseph G. Joyner as our Superintendent. He was the 2009 Florida Superintendent of the Year!

This was all explained to us at our monthly Davidson Realty Speaker Series.

Dr. Joyner also explained how selective the process is in choosing teachers for your children. He listed future plans to expand the schools to accommodate more children. He talked about how even with budget cuts, the children's activities and fun have not been sacrificed. The schools still provide art and PE, which a lot of schools can't say. These really are only a few reasons why our school system is excellent.
