Fox News
School districts and universities nationwide will observe alternative schedules due to safety concerns during the solar eclipse on April 8, 2024. Astrophysicist Dr. Bill Blair weighed in.
The eclipse route will travel from Mexico, arching northeast from Texas to Ohio before reaching Canada and going back into Maine. "There is no inherent danger from the eclipse itself as long as people don't look directly at the sun before totality." Angelica Stabile is a lifestyle writer for Fox News Digital.
Many school districts, and even some universities, that lie in the direct path of the eclipse have already planned to close school or cancel classes out of concern for students' safety.
