I just received a message from the Superintendent of Schools Sam Himmel about school on Tuesday.
She made the announcement that the school board has decided to close all Citrus County Schools two (2) hours early on Tuesday August 19th.
Hello Everyone,
Just a quick note to help you find our newest information that we have listed. One of our visitors suggested that we include the local utilities phone numbers. So that is what we have done. Please visit Utility Company Directory on the Citrus County Info Page.
We have also started a page that is about Inverness, which currently holds the County Seat. There is some demographic information about Inverness and other important links. Please visit the Inverness Page here.
What else would you like to see here? Do you have an opionion about the county seat being moved to Lecanto? Reply to this post with your comments or suggestions. Or if you would like use our Contact form to send me a private message.
That is all for now, Thanks for reading.
Well as I had mentioned in an earlier post some of the schools are offering an option for a fast pass for orientation night so you don’t have to wait in a long line the night of orientation. There is a catch to that though. Read the rest…
Well in case you are like me and don’t usually get a newspaper I have posted the dates and times for most schools in Citrus County that are offering orientation and meet your teacher night. I do know that some of these schools are offering early check in so there won’t be a long line the night of orientation. Please check with your child’s school to see if that option is available to you.

School Buses Saving Money by Going Green
(ARA) –To help take money out of the gas tank this fall and put it back into the classroom, school districts across the country are switching to propane-fueled buses as a means of coping with swelling diesel costs. And the lesson that families and schools are learning is more than simple economics. While it’s cheaper than gasoline and diesel, propane is also a clean, efficient, domestically produced fuel that reduces harmful emissions and greenhouse gases.
