The City of Casselberry is located in the Seminole County school district, an extremely desirable place to raise a family due to its outstanding reputation for quality education. Seminole County Public Schools (SCPS) is the 12th largest school district in Florida and is 60th nationally with more than 67,000 students and 10,000 employees. SCPS is a leader in education throughout Central Florida and the State and is widely recognized as a Premier National School District with an “A” grading from the Florida Department of Education. The City of Casselberry is home to two of those highly rated public schools - Casselberry Elementary and South Seminole Academy. In addition, there are presently three private schools located within the City - Lake Forrest Preparatory School, grades K through 8, The Geneva School, grades 7 through 12, and The Glen Academy at Lake Marie, ages 3 months to 12 years. The City of Casselberry (Casselberry) is always focused on the well-being of the community, whether it is ensuring quality design of new developments, construction, or rehabilitation of parks, connecting public pathways to trails, sidewalks, or shared rights- of-way, or successfully managing a municipal golf course. The overall goal is to provide a quality environment to call home and a place to work and shop. A large part of the City’s effort is to ensure the economic viability of the City. Higher property values and increasing tax bases make the City more economically sustainable to withstand downturns in regional and national economies that might otherwise cause a reduction in public services and facilities. While the City has used the lengthy strong economic period to commence construction on parks, upgrade and expand utility lines, and undertake a new Police Department headquarters, it has work diligently on economic development from private developers to annex lands, construct new projects, demolition, and redevelopment of many other sites. The list below is a sample of projects that were undertaken within the City of Casselberry last year. Several of the projects were designed and permitted and others are already constructed or are under construction. All of the privately led projects will result in an increased tax-base for the City. 7 Brew Coffee 7 Brew, an Arkansas-based coffee chain, is moving forward with plans to develop a drive-thru location on the vacant property located at 380 SR-436. The company specializes in custom-made drinks, coffee, matcha or shakes and caters exclusively to drive thru customers. The proposed site plan is minimal as a result, featuring a ±500 sq. ft. and remote cooler. The remaining space will be used for drive aisles and parking spaces. It is Casselberry Elementary 14
