It’s Back-to-School time across Tampa Bay

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – It’s the first day of school across the Bay area.

Thousands of Bay area school children will be returning to school across multiple counties.

And they will return to a variety of new schools, issues and focuses in their counties.

In Hillsborough, the Bay area’s largest school district will open a new high school: Morgan High located in Wimuama.

Among the Pinellas schools, Gul Beaches Elementary is reopening for the first time since Hurricane Helene in 2024.

And in Manatee County, schools are reopening as the district continues its search for a new superintendent. 

Here’s what students and parents need to know by school district for the upcoming year:
