Thankfully, Shearwater is zoned for schools in the St. Johns County School District, which is ranked in the top 10 districts in the country, according to greatschools.org. Plus, SJCSD has announced plans to construct its newest K-8 campus on land dedicated by Freehold Communities within Shearwater! Between the great schools, stunning homes and resort-style amenities, it’s easy to decide to purchase your new home at Shearwater.

Future School Site

This brand-new school will be built on 26 acres previously transferred by Freehold Communities to the district. Once complete, the new K-8 campus by SJCSD will be easily accessible from County Road 210 and Country Road 16A. It will also be a short walk, bike or golf cart ride for families living within Shearwater! You can forget the morning rush and instead have more time to sleep, have a healthy breakfast or finish up that last piece of homework.
