All traditional public schools will remain closed on Thursday, October 10, and Friday, October 11, meaning schools are closed for the entire week (October 7-11). We will provide updates on school reopening after Hurricane Milton has passed, as our facilities team will need time to conduct countywide assessments to ensure that our schools and offices are safe for students, teachers, and staff to return. We have also received many questions about hurricane make-up days and whether the school year will need to be extended. Our district leadership team is working through possible solutions and will provide an update as soon as possible. Evacuation centers (school shelters) will open at 10 AM today (10/8). More information and updates are available at https://www.sarasotacountyschools.net/hurricane.
TOMORROW, October 7, is the last day to register to vote!
