Lee County Schools
- We are taking another step to prepare for the 2020-2021 school year by appointing a reopening task force to examine the safest ways to keep students and staff healthy and provide the most equitable education when school resumes in August.
“I’m looking forward to getting their input because we’ve got a lot of important decisions to make,” says Superintendent Dr. Greg Adkins. “It’s going to be very important for us to get out in front of the public quite a bit over the course of the summer to communicate our plans and get feedback.”
