MIAMI-DADE COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOLS TO RE-OPEN ON MONDAY, JAN. 7. All Miami-Dade County public schools and administrative offices will reopen on Monday, January 7, at their regularly scheduled times.
School starts early this year in many Florida districts, thanks to a new state law that allows an earlier opening day. Public schools in Lake, Osceola and Seminole counties open for students Aug. 10, about two weeks earlier than they did last year. Forty of the state's 67 school districts also start classes on that day. Schools in Orange and Volusia welcome students on Aug. 15, also earlier than in 2015 when most local campuses started the new year on Aug. 24. Last year, the Florida Legislature passed a bill allowing schools to open as early as Aug. 10.
