“A public-school teachers’ strike expected to paralyze Puerto Rico this month is likely to pump hundreds of new students into Central Florida classrooms and spur an exodus of teachers from the island.

The Metro Orlando area is home to 220,000 Puerto Ricans, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, and acts as a natural network for many in the commonwealth looking to escape what seems an imminent crisis.”*
