Sarasota County Schools

Return to School

Sarasota County Schools has several teams developing guidance and planning students to return to school. We will continually review and assess the guidelines provided by Governor Ron DeSantis and the CDC, as well as work with our local DOH, to assess how to safely welcome students & staff back to school for the 2020-21 school year. In an effort to keep our staff, students, and community members as up to date as possible, we are making these planning efforts available online. These planning efforts represent ongoing thoughts, conversations, questions, and possible courses of action. We will update these documents as the planning process evolves. Please check back often, as this information will likely change with any new federal and state guidelines that are issued.
