SCHOOL CLOSED:  ECPS Schools and Offices to be Closed Friday, October 9, 2026

Pensacola, FL - Escambia County Public Schools Superintendent Keith Leonard has announced that schools and district offices will be closed on Friday, October 9, 2026,  due to impending  severe weather associated with Isaias.

The National Weather Service forecast indicates severe weather moving through the area on Friday, with the possibility of heavy precipitation and hazardous winds.  In an abundance of caution, all schools, district offices, and afterschool activities, including indoor and outdoor athletics, have been canceled for Friday, October 9, 2026.

“Although Monday, October 12 is a holiday for our students, we anticipate all other departments will resume work as usual on Monday,” stated Superintendent Keith Leonard. “Of course, we'll continue to work closely with local emergency operations officials to determine what is safest for our families and staff. We will always err on the side of caution when it comes to the safety of our students and employees.”

District officials will continue to monitor weather updates, and members of the community are encouraged to do the same.  If necessary, updates will be provided through local media, Focus Messenger, and the district website and social media platforms.
