In the May 2022 issue of SRQ Magazine, we ran a BrandStory marketing feature on Sarasota Military Academy. Below is an excerpt.

The 2022-23 school year marks the 20th anniversary of Sarasota Military Academy. That’s twenty years of creating an inclusive, challenging and rewarding experience for countless young men and women–building a generation that has led with Honor, Integrity, and Respect. Founded in 2002 on the original campus of St. Martha’s School in downtown Sarasota, SMA is a non-profit, tuition-free, public charter school for students in Grades 9-12. A Middle School Campus for Grades 6-8 was added in 2014 in East Sarasota. During its twenty years, SMA has educated over 20,000 cadets and is poised for continued growth.

“This is the start where your life takes off, and I’m glad I started here.” –Sophia Hoffman, Class of 2022 (grades 6-12)

With an engaged Board of Directors, an exclusive philanthropic foundation to support expansion initiatives, and the continued steadfast values underpinning our educational model, the future is even brighter for SMA. We will continue fostering a passion for learning and instilling the courage to reach a greater potential.

“I feel a great sense of accomplishment for the transformation I have undergone as a cadet, and I feel a great sense of loss for leaving behind an organization that empowered me along the way.” –Jessiah Straw, Class of 2013.
