All Escambia And Santa Rosa Schools Closed On Wednesday

January 16, 2018

Local school closures are detailed below for county schools. For the most complete North Escambia closure list of schools, government agencies, etc. click here.

All Escambia (FL) and Santa Rosa County schools will be closed on Wednesday for students and staff, and all district events have been canceled.

Schools in Escambia County (AL) are also closed Wednesday. Escambia Academy in Canoe, AL, is closed.

Escambia Superintendent Malcolm Thomas said the decision was made in an abundance of caution, due to concerns regarding the potential risk for transportation of students and staff, particularly reports of freezing precipitation accumulating during the overnight hours. He also said residents of the north end of the countywould likely experience most of the potentially freezing precipitation. Superintendent Thomas noted that at this time, students, parents and district staff should plan on a regular school day for Thursday, with all administrative offices also open.

(The Escambia County closure includes charter school Byrneville Elementary.) Pensacola Christian Academy is also closed.

Currently, school in Santa Rosa County will be closed on Wednesday and be in session on Thursday unless additional information requires closure.

    THANK YOU to the Superintendents for making an Early Announcement.
    This is a Great Service to us making arrangements for kids and grandkids.
    Best practice to keep busses off roads that may be slippery and keeping kids from long chilly rides.
    Everyone stay safe and God BLESS all who help care for our children.
