“When it’s hot like this we don’t even have our students outside, and if they are outside, we make sure that they’re hydrated before they go out and when they come in,” Dr. Cynthia Smith of All Minds Matter Academy near Springfield said.Duval County School District released its weather advisory guidelines, asking staff to ensure students have frequent access to water fountains and bottle filling stations.

We checked to see if all air conditioning units were working in Duval County Schools, and found out there were some problems at Eugene Butler Middle School, but they have since been fixed. There are also rules in place for students playing sports. They are not allowed to practice outside when the temperature is over 92 degrees.
