First State Bank of the Florida Keys continues to earn a “Five Star” rating by the Greater Key West Chamber of Commerce Education Committee for its dedication to Keys schools and students. The Bank has been awarded the “Five Star” rating since the programs inception.

The Tom Sawyer Five Star designation is awarded through the Chamber to members who contribute to local education by donating to schools and mentoring students.

“First State Bank is honored to be recognized for its historic commitment to the school district, teachers and more important the students and future community leaders,” said Kay Miller, First State Bank Vice President and Human Resources Director.
