OACS will close until April 15

On March 17, The Florida Department of Education determined that all public and private K-12 schools must close through April 15 to aid in the containment of COVID-19

“The containment of COVID-19 is essential, and this is not a decision we made lightly. Districts have taken action and have instituted distance learning as a necessary precaution to protect students, educators, families, and Florida’s overall public health,” said Commissioner of Education Richard Corcoran. “We are working with our local school districts to provide guidance and help children who need access food during this time. Our number one priority is keeping our families safe and healthy and stopping the spread of this virus. These actions will help mitigate the spread of COVID-19 in Florida. I will continue to work with the Governor, Superintendents, Florida College System and the State University System to do whatever we can to protect our children, our families, and our communities.”

We thank you for your patience during this difficult time. Please know that we are working diligently with state and health officials to ensure our students receive the most comprehensive educational possible while maintaining the health and safety of students, parents and staff.
