In an open letter to Florida Parents, the Florida Commissioner of Education, Anastasios Kamoutsas announced increased scores for students as shown in progress monitoring for this school year. In the letter, he says in part:
"When I became Commissioner of Education in July 2025, I set two priorities for Florida’s schools: student safety and academic achievement. I am pleased to share that progress monitoring results for the 2025-2026 school year continue to show students succeeding thanks to Florida’s first-in-the-nation progress monitoring assessments."

He also shared resources parents can use to help their students succeed:
"In addition, the Florida Department of Education is proud to provide parent resources for student success in Mathematics and English Language Arts to help families support learning at home. Each guide outlines key concepts and skills taught by grade level, defines important terms, and offers practical activities and questions to encourage learning beyond the classroom – all aligned to the B.E.S.T. Standards. "
Celebrating our Food Services Workers and Transportation Department
During National School Lunch Week and National Bus Safety Week, we proudly celebrate the dedicated professionals who nourish and transport our students with care and positivity. From the smiling faces in our cafeterias to the steady hands behind the wheel, these everyday heroes create safe, welcoming environments that help our students thrive. Their commitment strengthens our schools and reflects the heart of what makes our district great.
