The Columbia County School District (CCSD) is a school district based in Lake City, Florida that encompasses the entire Columbia County, Florida. The district is controlled jointly by the five members of the Columbia County Board of Education and the Superintendent of Schools, both elected by the county voters. The CCSD currently operates a total of 16 schools: 9 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, 3 high schools, and an alternative school. The district's offices are located in the historic Columbia County High School building, constructed in 1921.[2]

Adult Education provides an opportunity for individuals to earn a GED or High School diploma, learn academic skills required for employment or subsequent training, and become literate.

The Even Start program helps parents provide a good learning environment for their children, which also improves their own educational and parenting skills to promote family literacy.

Career and Technical Education can be utilized by students and working adults to explore interests and vocations, acquire employability skills, and experience contextual learning.
