  • Glades Day School is a K-12 private school in Belle Glade, Florida. It is accredited by the Florida Council of Independent Schools. It was founded in 1965 as a segregation academy by white parents in response to the court-ordered desegregation of Palm Beach public schools. It opened as Pahokee Day School and was renamed in 1967 as Day School of the Glades when it purchased and renovated the former Everglades Memorial Hospital in Pahokee. In 2006, Pahokee Mayor JP Sasser told a newspaper that he left the school in 1970 because administrators prohibited the football team from shaking hands with racially integrated opponents, but that he now supports the school "because they are not the same school." In 2006, the student body was 8.5% Black, while nearby public high schools were (Glades Central and Pahokee) were more than 97% Black. Sasser said the Pahokee High School football team showed up to root for Glades Day as it pursued a state championship. "The people of the Glades come together for the Glades, and history's history."
