Several Kentucky school districts won’t be holding classes April 8th. For some, it’s due to the solar eclipse, the totality of which will pass through parts of western Kentucky mid-afternoon eastern time. For others, like Fayette County Public Schools, it’s a coincidence, according to spokesperson Dia Davidson-Smith.
“It was already on our district calendar, already board approved for time off, when we work to figure out the actual calendar for school classes and work calendars and things of that nature.”
