==History==
The district was created upon Pinellas County's split from Hillsborough County in 1912. Dixie M. Hollins was the county's first superintendent of schools. Michael Grego, the current superintendent, has over 30 years of educational experience, having previously served as a teacher, Assistant Superintendent for Hillsborough County Schools, and Superintendent of Osceola County Schools. Like other school districts in Florida and the South, Pinellas
County has had to deal with issues of desegregation, court-ordered busing, and school choice. In 2000, the district received "unitary" (desegregated) status from the court assigned to monitor integration issues, and from 2003 to 2007 operated a "controlled choice" program which set minimum and maximum percentages of black pupils in individual schools. In 2007 the "Choice" program was replaced with a "close-to-home' school program, where students go to the school that is nearest to their residence. In multiple editorials in 2007, the Tampa Bay Times, formerly the St. Petersburg Times, recommended that the school district abandon integration efforts in favor of “close to home” schools. Exceptions to this plan are the district's various magnet programs, including the fundamental schools and the high schools with Academies of Excellence, which require application and acceptance. From 2007 and by 2015 student performance and behavior at five elementary schools in a mostly black area of St. Petersburg sharply declined.〔Fitzpatrick, Cara, Lisa Gartner, and Michael LaForgia.

In March 2009, Pinellas County Schools announced that all schools would close one hour early every Wednesday starting with the 2009–10 school year. The district said that this schedule change was to provide teachers with more planning period time. After much controversy, the school district voted in September 2012 to discontinue early release Wednesdays beginning with the 2013–14 school year.
