Palm Beach County public schools are closed today, Monday, for the Columbus Day holiday. The school district calls the day a “teacher work day,” and students will not report to class.
It is the third day off so far this school year for public school students in the county. The next break is Election Day, November 3, when many schools serve as polling places. Students will also have November 11 off, followed by Thanksgiving break from November 23 through November 27.
Private schools in the area are in session today, according to the report.
Families planning child care or carpools should note the remaining dates on the calendar now.
