Florida school districts that were forced to close due to Hurricane Ian will reopen no later than October 18, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) announced on Thursday.
“We’re doing all that and we’ll continue to do and there’s a lot that needs to be done, and I think the bounce back and the resiliency that you’ve seen in southwest Florida has been a different level than what we’ve seen in other storms across the country, and that bodes well,” DeSantis continued, explaining that it is very difficult to return to a state of normalcy when children are not back in school.
“Most of the districts that had impacts have already opened,” he added, noting that the rapid turnaround is not something always seen in other parts of the country.
