Cornelia James

Current Parent

“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.”
