Students who enroll in South Lake Schools under Section 105 may continue their enrollment through graduation, provided they maintain continuous enrollment and are not expelled for disciplinary reasons.. The continuation of Section 105 Schools of Choice by South Lake Schools will be determined by the Board of Education on an annual basis.
