Glenallen Elementary School, dating back to 1984, was the first school built in the North Port neighborhood. The school’s approximately 700 students – nicknamed the Panthers – are in prekindergarten through fifth grade. The school hosts celebrations and events throughout the year, including Spirit Week, where students can dress up to fit a theme. Literacy Week and the book fair are also student favorites. Past field trips have involved visits to the Marie Selby Botanical Gardens in Sarasota and a Special Olympics event. Extracurricular activities include a Panther Run, a sports day and color run. The school also hosts a STEM Night, where students participate in science, technology, engineering and mathematics activities such as building circuit creatures. There are also before- and after- school programs available. Glenallen Elementary School, located in a suburban setting close to Heron Middle School and North Port High School, is part of the Sarasota County School District.

Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
