Testimonials

"It’s a really friendly community here. I like that I can try new things, make mistakes, and I don’t get judged for it. I feel very confident here."

Radu Putureanu
“Since my oldest daughter started at SAS, I’ve watched her grow in every way. She’s more confident with friends and schoolwork, but most importantly, her faith has deepened—she’s building a real relationship with God and is excited to live it each day.”

Nathalia Knott
"I have been here the longest, and so why do I keep coming back? It comes down to the atmosphere and culture of love and support, both among the students and among the teachers. Because our kids feel safe and loved here, we can focus on the academics to which God has entrusted us."

Isabella
"My favorite part of SAS is the way they educate me. Here is very patient and creative. I’m not afraid to express myself or ask questions."

Dane Hurst
"My favorite thing about working here is the healthy family culture we have built. We worship together every morning, and that comfort level gives me the agency to recreate that atmosphere in my classrooms."

Cornelia James
“My daughter, Neriah, was once very shy, but Sawgrass has given her the confidence to use her voice and talents. Through class projects, presentations, and programs like SAS Sabbath, she has overcome her fear of speaking and performing in front of others. These experiences have shaped her in ways that will bless her for the rest of her life, wherever the Lord leads her.”
