During preparation and response to Category 4 Hurricane Ian, the Florida Department of Education closed down most of its 75 school districts. Cassie Palelis, a department press secretary, said the closures were necessary"to allow families time to prepare and open as shelters for the community." Sixteen districts were closed Sept. 27; 52 districts were closed Sept. 28, the day the hurricane began to hit the state; and 58 were closed on Sept. 29, Palelis said.
