SCHOOL ATTENDANCE BOUNDARIES

The District supports a parent’s right to choose which district school their child will attend, provided a parent’s choice will not be detrimental to the district as a whole or its students.  Available resources and services, class size, and pupil transportation, along with other reasonable considerations, will be weighed when considering school placement. 

In order to alleviate overcrowding, the Superintendent or designee may deny enrollment outside an attendance area and may place some students in a school outside of their attendance area. Parents/guardians of students who are placed in schools outside of their attendance area shall be notified of the school their child will be attending as soon as possible. Transportation of pupils will be provided according to the district’s transportation policy.

Parents who disagree with administration placement decisions may appeal that decision to the School Board.
