The Escambia County School District will receive $363,282 for lost revenues in a settlement with BP.
The settlement is a reimbursement for one-half cent local option sales tax funds the district lost during a four month period as a result of the BP oil spill. The money will be used in a capital reserve fund for school construction projects.
