Commissioner Seeks Waiver

Dear Education Stakeholders,

The Florida Department of Education has submitted a waiver request to the U.S. Department of Education to seek relief from federal assessment and accountability requirements as a result of school closures from COVID-19. One of the assurances of the waiver request is to provide public notice and the opportunity for public comment. If you have any comments on Florida’s waiver request, please email them to ESSA@fldoe.org.

Sincerely,
FDOE ESSA Team
