Here's your local news at a glance for Tuesday, the 15th of April.
Good morning, Jupiter.
🚧 Accidents
Lifeguards rescued three people from a dangerous rip current at Carlin Park in Jupiter over the weekend and the Public Information Officer for Palm Beach County Ocean Rescue said rip currents have been a major challenge along Florida’s coasts.
📰 Economy
Last year, Palm Beach County saw nearly 10 million visitors spend over $7 billion, leading to an economic impact of about $10.5 billion.
Tourism leaders credit the growth to a new marketing technology platform — improved local planning and stakeholder support.
🎓 Education
About 100 high school seniors in the Palm Beach County 'Suits for Seniors' program will graduate on Saturday, April 19.
The program mentors students and provides new tailored suits — tools that boost their confidence for college interviews and future career steps.
Florida schools will require later start times for middle and high schools by the 2026—2027 school year after Gov. DeSantis signed a law in May 2023; however, a bill to repeal these changes is under consideration by state lawmakers.
Most areas will start the 2025—2026 school year on Aug. 11 under current schedules.
