NICEVILLE, Fla. – Okaloosa County public schools are closed today due to the potential of severe weather.

“Due to the potential of damaging high winds, tornadoes, severe thunderstorms, large hail, and the storm’s timing, the decision has been made to close schools in the best interests of the safety of students and staff,” the Okaloosa County School District announced Monday evening.

“All before and after school activities, including extracurricular activities, daycare, and tutoring, are canceled as well.”

The announcement went on to say that schools have been dealing with a challenging month of weather in Northwest Florida.

“Adjustments to the school day due to severe weather disrupt our daily routines, and it would be expected for “weather fatigue” to set in. However, the alternative places too much risk on our students and staff.”

Schools also are closed in both Walton and Santa Rosa counties. Schools remain open today in Escambia County, according to the Escambia County School District.
