When does school start? Central Florida back-to-school calendar
FOX 35 Backpack Brigade: Donate school supplies for Florida students
FOX 35's Care Force and One Heart for Women and Children have teamed up to help Florida families gather school supplies, so kids can focus on learning – and hopefully lessen the financial stress for moms, dads, guardians, and caregivers. Join us on Friday, Aug. 2, from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Walmart Supercenter on Colonial Drive in Orlando. The FOX 35 Care Force will be out there collecting various school supplies kids need to be successful for the upcoming school year: backpacks, lunchboxes, crayons, pencils, notebooks, markers, and scissors, plus more.
