This is what we know today! 11/14/2018 Disclaimer This is what we know today! 11/14/2018 Things will change tomorrow!!!! 11/14/2018 I must include this disclaimer because the information contained in these slides is the most recent we have from the Florida Department of Education. But, we know that tomorrow everything can and will change because there is much information that is yet to be determined. There is much To Be Determined (TBD)!
