Pre-Registration Available Now for the  2026-2027 School Year

The School District of Lee County is excited to announce that students entering the District in August 2026 can enroll now. This advanced registration period is open to any incoming student who is:

Entering Kindergarten for the 2026-2027 school year.
Moving from a private or charter school to a Lee County Public School for the 2026-2027 school year.
Previously enrolled students moving back to Lee County for the 2026-2027 school year.
Relocating to Lee County from another county or state and will be attending a Lee County Public School for the 2026-2027 school year.

Parents enrolling and re-enrolling now will be notified in January when it is time to submit a School Choice Application to Student Enrollment. Enrolling now enables the School District to preplace siblings, with both a common parent and common address, in the same school for the 2026-2027 school year.

The enrollment process can be completed entirely online through the FOCUS Parent Portal. Simple step-by-step instructions are on the School District’s website. Parents with children already in the District can use their existing FOCUS account to upload the necessary documents. Parents new to the School District can create a FOCUS Parent Portal to complete the registration process.
