Sigsbee Charter School in Key West, Florida, is a non-profit organization committed to establishing itself as an innovative, engaging elementary school that captivates students' interest through a marine studies, environmental education focus. Capitalizing on its beautiful aquatic surroundings and 11 acres of green space, Sigsbee offers hands-on integrated learning experiences that teach students to be thoughtful stewards of the environment.
Sigsbee Charter School opened in the summer of 2010. It is located in the legacy Sigsbee Elementary School facility, in the heart of Naval Air Station Key West's Sigsbee Park Annex. It opened as a K-5 elementary school and will expand by one grade level each year, until it becomes a thriving K-8 elementary & middle school.
The Sigsbee staff and Key West community continues to partner together to continue at Sigsbee Charter School to support the transient military children who attend the school as well as those who apply to attend from the local community. A curriculum focused on national standards, best practices, and differentiated learning enriches and challenges all learners.
Students' learning experiences revolve around exciting environmental field trips, hands-on learning activities, and an immersion in the natural environment. Catch the wave!
