The Florida Dept. of Education requires a certain number of hours each term for students to earn instructional credits in all grade levels. This is required of all districts even after weather events cause school closures. We appreciate the patience and cooperation of our staff and families as we work to bring schools back to order after this unfortunate event. Thank you!
