Well now that school is officially out here locally many people are considering buying a new home in time for the school year. This includes those relocating from other areas, those moving within the Lee County area & those currently renting & ready to buy.

The 2 typical questions I am asked about the schools here in Lee County are:

What school district is this home in?

Lee County is set up as a school choice county. This means that you get your pick of what school your child goes to. You can pick from any of the schools in your zone. Most people end up getting their first or second choices. Go ahead, check out the Lee County School's Zoning Map.

Are the schools good here?

Well that's easy to answer. Lee County has a grading system set up for the schools. You can go online & see how each ranks here in Lee County.

Very nice. Good Google bait. About half of the callers I get ask about public schools. We have little in the way of school choice. It's pretty much cluster controlled to minimize busing expenses. Some counties have magnet schools with specialities and some are VERY GOOD. One of our high schools is one of the highest ranked in the country for foreign language and technology based curriculum. Just try to buy a home there. You'd better be prepared to pay the premium, if and when something is available.

I have reams of public school info for folks relocating here.

Lenn,

That's good information about your schools. Sometimes I wish we had different school districts. It would be nice for property values near the better schools. We had that up north in Indiana where I grew up. Its funny to watch the school buses in the morning too, you'll see 5 different buses come by the same bus stop.
