Terra Mana

This school was recently (2024/2025) the only school in manatee county to improve two grades to a B grade school (that’s 8/10 rating).

Love this school. It’s easy to get in touch with teachers, the principal knows all the kids names, friendly environment. I’ve had children at this school since 2015 and every year it seems to get even better.

Amazing School and StaffI recently moved to the country, and my daughter began 1st grade at Palmetto Elementary School. She was understandably petrified—facing a new language, a new country, a large building, and so many students and teachers was overwhelming for her. Each morning was a struggle as she begged not to go to school, filled with stress and fear.However, the incredible staff at Palmetto made all the difference. They were understanding, empathetic, and welcoming, allowing me to accompany her and help her settle in. I feel truly blessed to have chosen Palmetto Elementary. Among all the schools I toured—charter, private, and religious—Palmetto's tour stood out the most. The principal is outstanding, and her leadership is reflected in the wonderful team she has assembled.Thank you, Palmetto, for making this challenging transition so much more pleasant for both my daughter and me.

The single best elementary school in all of manatee county. Principal and teachers do an INCREDIBLE job!!!

Admin is cold and uncaring…PreK teachers are downright mean and act they don’t like children. Admin pretends they care but they don’t take action to fix complaints.
