FORT MYERS, Fla. — Some Lee County parents, teachers, and students have a message for Governor Ron Desantis.

They held a car parade in Fort Myers to make it heard on Friday.

Right now, because of an executive order, Florida schools must reopen next month, and they have to have physical buildings open at least five days a week.

The order comes at a time when cases are surging in our state.

The group says they want the Governor and the state department to know they don't feel safe going back to the classroom.
