On June 14, 2021, Governor DeSantis approved HB529, which amended Section 1003.45, Florida Statutes, to require a moment of silence to be set aside for public school students during each school day.  The new law requires the principal to require teachers in first-period classrooms in all grades to set aside at least one (1) minute, but not more than two (2) minutes, for a moment of silence daily, during which students may not interfere with other students' participation. The new law prohibits teachers from making suggestions as to the nature of any reflection that a student may engage in during the moment of silence.  Instead, teachers must encourage parents/guardians to discuss the moment of silence with their children and to make suggestions as to the best use of this time. The new law took effect July 1, 2021.

The School District of Osceola County is ranked number 1 in the nation for percentage of students linked to Khan Academy and College Board!

Khan Academy has recently partnered with College Board to provide students with a free world class resource to help them prep for the SAT. When students take the PSAT/NMSQT or PSAT 8/9, their scores will be linked to the Khan Academy SAT prep site and they will receive personalized practice as item-level data from students’ PSAT/NMSQT or PSAT 8/9 to generate specific practice recommendations based on an actual exam taken under test-like conditions. Which means…students will practice on skills they need to be successful in the SAT. Students are highly encouraged to utilize this FREE Resource to increase SAT scores, which may lead to college acceptances and scholarship opportunities! Log on to https://www.khanacademy.org/sat.
