Schools

Lee County does not assign a school by street address alone. Under the district’s 2026-27 Student Enrollment Plan, families rank the schools in the zone their address falls in, and the district guarantees a seat, with bus service, at a school in that zone. Siblings and homes within 2 miles of a school get preference when a school fills. In the district’s 2026-27 zone layer, all of The Forum falls in one zone at each level:

Level Zone Schools in the zone, with Florida’s 2026 grade
Elementary J Colonial Elementary: C, Gateway Elementary: B, Ray V. Pottorf Elementary: B, Treeline Elementary: B
Middle EE Fort Myers Middle: C, Paul Laurence Dunbar Middle: B
High East 2 Dunbar High: C, East Lee County High: C, Gateway High: A, Lehigh Senior High: C, Riverdale High: C
