Today Is Not A School Holiday; Printed Calendar Is Wrong

February 13, 2017

This Monday, February 13, is not a school holiday in Escambia County as listed on a printed school district calendar that was distributed early in the school year.

The printed calendar indicates that there are two student holidays in the month of February, but this is incorrect, said Superintendent Malcolm Thomas.

“The only school holiday in February occurs on Monday, February 20, which is also President’s Day,” Thomas said.
