BREVARD COUNTY, Florida – Brevard County Public Schools will be closed on Monday, October 9, 2016, due to the impacts from Hurricane Matthew. A decision on whether or not schools will be closed on Tuesday has not yet been announced by BPS.
“District personnel ha[ve] worked diligently to restore facilities and operations to pre-hurricane status,” BPS stated in a release. “Based on our most recent updates from FPL, 100% power restoration for Monday cannot be guaranteed; impacting critical supports such as HVAC and the ability to adequately prepare student meals at all school locations.
