Sarasota Kids Hit the Books on Columbus Day

Just because Monday is a federal holiday doesn’t mean kids in Sarasota get out of class.

While students in Sarasota schools still have to hit the books on Columbus Day, they do have an upcoming day off that’s just around the corner. They’ll enjoy a long weekend starting Oct. 24 courtesy of an upcoming professional day for teachers and administrators, according to the district’s calendar.

Other upcoming days off for Sarasota kids include:

• Thanksgiving break – Nov. 26-28.
• Winter break – Dec. 22 – Jan. 2.

Monday, Oct. 20, also ends the first grading period.
