Lifelong Learning Classes FAQs

Lifelong Learning Classes FAQs Registration Q: Who can register for classes? A: Any adult over the age of 18 is eligible to register for classes. Certain classes may have age restrictions due to content. Students under the age of 18 are not eligible to register, even with parent permission, unless the class is specifically for students under 18 (e.g. SAT/ACT prep). Some classes may be offered on an individual basis to students under the age of 18. This is subject to the instructor’s approval. Students under the age of 16 cannot be left unsupervised on campus at any time. This is a policy of The School District of Lee County. Q: How do I register for classes?
