Schools

There are only really two public schools that service the entire Lafayette County Area and they are Lafayette High School and Lafayette Elementary School and both of those are located in Mayo, Florida. Until the population grows more there will be no money for any more new schools. There are 1200 students between the two schools and families are given choices of either the school in the county, a school outside the county, a virtual school or homeschooling. Once the choice has been made and the school district has approved there are no appeals. There is no information about elementary school times, bus schedules or how to enroll online on any of the pages of the website. You will have to go to the school board building or the appropriate school to enroll your child should you move into the district.

Lafayette County Florida has no higher learner institutes within the county either. College-bound students must travel to Madison, Live Oak or down to one of the other larger cities to attend any technical, community of regular college programs.
