Seminole County Legal Advice re: School Re-Zoning

Seminole County schools started today and Orange County start on Monday August 20th. This is such an exciting time of year as the kids prepare to go back to school or start school for the first time. To make sure they are prepared make sure you and your spouse or former spouse have a game plan for getting them to and from school on time, they have the right school supplies, they are getting enough sleep and enough to eat, these will all make for a happier and more productive school year. Additionally, if you are getting ready to divorce or are divorced, be aware that there are major changes coming down the pipeline for Seminole County schools next year and choosing a school district for the kids will be a part of your settlement agreement. If your address may be part of the rezoning effort in Seminole County make sure you know where you will be rezoned to and how that school ranks. It is almost always in the children’s best interest to go to the higher ranking school.  If you have any questions about how to handle back-to-school situations as they pertain to divorce, please contact an Orlando lawyer today...we are happy to clarify!

Here is some information on the potential re-zoning efforts in Seminole County:
