| About Us
Our Mission:
To ensure that each student achieves his/her highest
personal potential
Our Vision:
To be a world-class school system
Lee
County Public Schools is the
ninth-largest district in Florida and one of the 50
largest school districts in the United States. We
proudly educate approximately 80,000 students in grades
K-12. Our District is a model for others in the
state and nation - from our Microsoft Certified High
School (Dunbar High) to our National Blue Ribbon
School of Excellence (The Sanibel School.)
While the unprecedented growth
we've experienced the past few years has slowed
significantly, families are still moving to our
area. The reason is
simple - Lee County's
585,000+ residents live and work in an attractive
environment. Exotic trees and plants flourish in the
subtropical climate, and local waterways support a
host of fish, birds and other animals. There are
beautiful waterfronts everywhere.
Schools in Lee County play a
key role in community life. With approximately 11,500
full- and part-time employees, the School District is the county's
largest employer and with the District's construction program,
building new schools and
renovating and expanding existing facilities, the District
has been
the area's largest developer.
We hope your visit to our Web site is an
enjoyable one - welcome!
