School is back in session across the greater Tampa Bay region, bringing with it the familiar blend of excitement, early morning hustle, and new-year challenges. As families in Hillsborough, Pinellas, and Polk counties settle into routines, Florida Matters gives us a detailed look inside the “backpack” of this new academic year — from staffing concerns to critical funding updates.
For parents, the first week of school often means frantic mornings, hurried breakfasts, and navigating the infamous school car line. This year is no different.

You can tune in to the official Florida Matters program for in-depth discussions and follow updates on their Facebook and Twitter/X.
