I am praying for wisdom for the administration of these schools on how the funds should be used.
Congratulations to these “A” or rating improved schools!
Citizens, be aware that the Florida Legislature wanted to deny these awards to those schools that imposed mask mandates, which has nothing to do with the purpose of this award – high quality education and improved student performance.
meanwhile….. the list of D & F schools keeps getting bigger
