Escambia, Santa Rosa Schools Open

January 7, 2014

The freezing temperatures closed some Alabama schools, but for most of our area it’s class as usual this morning.

Schools in Escambia County, FL, Escambia County, AL, and Santa Rosa counties are all open today.

Escambia County (FL) School Superintendent Malcolm Thomas said the school district will have maintenance staff readily available to deal with any heating or plumbing issues as they arise due to weather conditions.

Schools in Baldwin County, AL, are closed today for the cold, and Mobile County Schools are opening two hours late this morning.

    We should have started two hours late today. Considering we start picking the children up before the sun is up it would have been the smart thing to do. Our bus had no heat at all for the first run and only a little heat for the second run. Good thing we have smart parents who had blankets wrapped around their children as they put them on the bus. We managed but it just would have made more sense to wait and give things a chance to warm up some.
