A Florida judge ruled against the state’s order that required schools to open for in-person education amid the CCP virus pandemic, siding with a major Florida teachers union that wants local districts to decide. Shortly following the judge’s decision, the state filed a notice of appeal, which puts the judge’s decision on hold.
Florida’s Education Commissioner Richard Corcoran issued an emergency order in early July (pdf) mandating that all physical schools in the state will have to reopen campuses by the end of August for at least 5 days a week, and follow guidelines set by the Florida Department of Health.
