Middle School QQ

The School District of Lee County is reopening the original Lehigh Acres Middle School on Arthur Avenue as a stand-alone middle school in August 2023. Students entering 6th, 7th and 8th grade in the fall may use the January 17th to March 3rd open enrollment period to select to attend the school.

Currently referred to as Middle School QQ, the new school needs a new name and the community is asked to help. In general, the School Board is looking for names that refer to at least one of the following:

• The history, culture, and people of Florida and especially of Southwest Florida;
• The natural environment and native plants and animals of Florida and especially of Southwest Florida;
• Notable events or achievements that are associated with Florida and especially with Southwest Florida;
• The neighborhood, community, or physical location of the school;
• Founders, leaders, heroes, symbols, and fundamental principles of our nation.

Anyone with an idea is asked to submit it through the naming survey below. Once the survey is closed, an Ad Hoc committee will review the suggestions. A second survey will be taken in February with the top qualifying suggestions. The Ad Hoc committee will review the final survey results and present a recommendation to the School Board in March for approval at a meeting in April.

The deadline for submission is 5:00 p.m. on Thursday, January 26th.
