Florida voters have approved Amendment 3. The amendment increases the homestead exemption for non-school property taxes to $150,000 in 2027 and $250,000 in 2028. That means many homeowners could see lower property tax bills.

I don’t care if you’re a Republican, Democrat, Independent, or somewhere in between. YOUR VOTE MATTERS! 🇺🇸 We spend a lot of time complaining about what’s happening in Washington, Tallahassee, and our own communities. Well, today is your chance to have a say!

A student in Port St Lucie today was released off the bus into thigh-deep flood waters. You'll then notice, while walking to his house, he likely steps into a ditch and goes deeper into the water. Credit: Tina Gamez-Elieson

𝐂𝐋𝐀𝐘 𝐇𝐈𝐆𝐇 𝐒𝐂𝐇𝐎𝐎𝐋 𝐒𝐓𝐔𝐃𝐄𝐍𝐓 𝐀𝐑𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐃 On October 30, 2026, a Clay High School Student came to school wearing an outfit that consisted of camouflage and commando-style gear, including a tactical vest with pouches, a ballistic helmet and a radio. A school employee saw the individual, didn't recognize them or know if they were a student at the time and saw them turn and immediately leave school property; this prompted extreme concern about his behavior and disruption to the school environment. The school was placed on a SECURE status as we conducted our investigation. After locating the student off-campus and being interviewed, the student was arrested on a misdemeanor for disrupting a school function. The student is also being disciplined in accordance with the Clay County District Schools Student Code of Conduct. The Clay County Sheriff’s Office takes all threats involving our schools extremely seriously and we appreciate the coordination with Clay County District Schools to ensure the safety of our students, faculty and staff. Protecting our students and providing a safe, secure environment for learning will always be our top priority.
