Summer Reading
Summer reading is a requirement for all Upper School students.
Scheduling
The master schedule and courses are still being diligently worked on across all three divisions throughout the summer. We will have schedules for the 2022-23 school year the week of August 15, 2022.
Returning Upper School students met with administration before the end of the school year to plan and share preferences for courses.
New students will be contacted by the Academic Dean in the near future. As the schedules are still tentative, administration will reach out to any students with questions regarding their course selections for the coming year. That said, the formal drop/add for students is set for the first couple of weeks of August accordingly.

Supply Lists
Click Here to access 2022-23 Supply Lists.
All students will need a backpack to carry items to and from school and a lunchbox with an icepack for lunch and snack. These items may be purchased from any store.
Textbook Ordering
In order to ensure all students have the required textbooks to begin the school year and in an effort to provide families with the greatest savings, textbook ordering as well as novels required by the English department will now be ordered by the school and will be billed to your FACTS account. Book fees this year are $125.
Digital textbook ordering will be for core subject classes. Students will be required to purchase their own textbooks for AP courses and students will be contacted by the AP teacher.
Athletics
The Seacrest Athletic program offers 10 different sports and has a total of 32 teams at the Varsity/JV and Middle School level. We encourage students to play multiple sports and over eighty percent of our Upper School and Middle Students participate in at least one school-sponsored team. Seacrest is a member of the Florida High School Athletic Association, Sunshine State Conference and Private 8 Conference.
