School District of Lee County will again offer Lee FlexEd for home education students.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are excited to enter our second year of the Lee FlexEd program following a successful launch with our initial cohort during the 2025-2026 school year,\u201d said Cara Coble, instructional coach and content specialist with the district.<\/p>\n
The program is designed for home education students who participate in either the Florida Tax Credit Scholarship (FTC-PEP), or the Family Empowerment Scholarship for Students with Unique Abilities (FES-UA).<\/p>\n
The fee-based program is open to middle and high school students.<\/p>\n
\u201cEligible families simply need to complete our online interest form to share their course and school preference,\u201d Coble said. \u201cFrom there, a Choice Navigator will reach out directly to guide them through the next steps and personalized options.\u201d<\/p>\n
The form can be filled out at\u00a0https:\/\/tinyurl.com\/9k3ket9d.<\/p>\n
Enrollment is currently open for the first semester. To ensure families have time to attend open house and their assigned school, enrollment will close on Aug. 1.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe will continue placing students through Aug. 11, right up until the first day of school,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
The district has capacity for approximately 100 students this year.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith about 25 applicants already submitted, seats are filling quickly,\u201d Coble said. \u201cWe encourage interested families to submit an interest form as soon as possible to secure their spot.\u201d<\/p>\n
Courses offered are tailored to each participating school site, but students can choose from a range of classes.<\/p>\n
\u201cOpportunities include visual and performing arts, JROTC, and various Career and Technical Education programs that offer industry certifications,\u201d Coble said. \u201cParticipating students attend their selected course on-site at their assigned school every day during the scheduled period, allowing them to seamlessly integrate into the school community for that period.\u201d<\/p>\n
She said Lee FlexEd is a wonderful bridge between home education and public-school resources.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt allows students to enrich their learning, build unique skills, and earn industry certifications that pave the way for future career success,\u201d Coble said.<\/p>\n
