Siesta Key, Florida

Gulf Coast

Siesta Key

An eight-mile barrier island whose sand is 99 percent quartz — blinding white, cool underfoot, and the reason Siesta Beach lands on national lists every year. The north end near the village is dense and social: 1950s cottages, low-rise condos, and Ocean Boulevard's bars within walking distance. Sanderling and the south end are quieter, with canal-front houses that come with a dock and a bridge-free run to the Gulf through Midnight Pass channel. Weekly-rental zoning on parts of the island makes it one of the few places locally where a vacation-rental pro forma actually pencils.

Zoned schools (Sarasota County)

There are no schools on the island itself. These are the Sarasota County public schools Siesta Key addresses are currently zoned to — students are assigned by address, not by proximity.

What the rating means: GreatSchools scores each school from 1 to 10 based largely on state test results, academic progress and how different groups of students perform. It is a summary of test data, not a judgement of teaching, programs or fit for your child.

Why this disclaimer: ratings are refreshed by GreatSchools each year and Florida districts redraw attendance boundaries, open new schools and change grade spans between school years. Verify the current assignment for the exact address with the county school district — and visit — before you rely on it in an offer.
