For parents, I know researching school districts and figuring out the best education options for your children can be challenging. While I'm a Realtor by profession and am asked constantly about schools, I'm also a mother of three children who all went through the Florida education system and have personal experience with public, private and magnet schools. Due to professional & ethical guidelines, real estate agents are not supposed to directly advise clients on school districts or specific schools. That's why I've put together this guide for parents / guardians to navigate and research on your own. Some of this information applies only to the Tampa Bay area, but much of the content applies to the entire state of Florida.
