Open Enrollment Update!

All other NEW open enrollment applications for grades 5-12 will be determined on August 8 after registration.
New OE applications are encouraged to fill out paperwork but you will not be allowed to register until after you receive approval.
Students who have already been approved or are currently attending Central Lee do NOT need to fill out paperwork again.

Joe Krebill of the Central Lee Agricultural Education department and FFA program at Central Lee High School is pictured with the family beef herd. Some of the animals are part of Joe’s Supervised Agricultural Experience program through Agricultural Education. The Supervised Agricultural Experience projects are an extension of the Agricultural Education program at Central Lee Community Schools. Experiential and work-based learning in school based agricultural education allows local programs to extend beyond the classroom and into the community in order to develop an individual student’s industry and career-based competencies. The methodology for delivering such high quality experiential learning is the Supervised Agricultural Experience (SAE). The SAE is a required component of a total Agricultural Education program and intended for every student. Through their involvement in the SAE program students are able to consider multiple careers and occupations, learn expected workplace behavior, and develop specific skills within an industry, and are provided opportunities to apply academic and occupational skills in the workplace or a simulated workplace environment. Through these strategies, students learn how to apply what they are learning in the classroom as they prepare to transition into the world of college and career opportunities. #CTEworksforCL
