Gifted endorsed teachers will deliver on and monitor educational goals and your child will be in a classroom with both Gifted and high achieving students. Refer to our infographic here to better understand the different models offered within our surrounding schools.
We will have individual classrooms and each room has their own door. All primary classrooms have their own bathroom.
We will use the same monitoring tools the other Pasco schools use. FAST will be state monitoring. Our curriculum has assessments for the core subject areas (Reading, Math, etc) to monitor, as a county we use Renaissance CBM for monitoring foundations of Reading & Math.

One of the remarkable things about a K-8 school is our opportunities to build a compassionate and collaborative culture across all student ages. We plan to be intentional with our staff and students to create a culture with the high expectation of showing care and compassion for all students. We will also plan for intentional times when middle school buddy classes will visit elementary buddy classes to share learning experiences. At the same time, we understand that this is a question on the minds of our families. All elementary students will continue to be supervised by a staff member. Elementary classrooms have individual bathrooms (even art and music) for our younger students to use throughout the school day. Lunch and recess times will not overlap. During student passing time, Middle School students have a designated stairwell and are not allowed to travel on the elementary stairwells. We envision all student ages interacting the most during arrival and dismissal. Middle Schoolers and Elementary Schoolers have designated stairwells.
School uniforms will not be required at Skybrooke K-8. Our dress code requirements will align with our school districts Student Code of Conduct.
All Pasco County Schools use a Positive Behavioral Interactions and Supports (PBIS) system.
Yes. Consistent with all schools, our youngest students will sit in the front of the bus to provide closer supervision by the bus driver.

VPK students and students on school choice are not provided with bus transportation. We will have a car line and a sidewalk for students to walk or bike to school, too.
