IMPORTANT: Kindergarten School Assignment Notice

While students are generally assigned to the elementary school located within their neighborhood attendance area, all school assignments are subject to established class size limits and district capacity.

If a particular building reaches its maximum class size or enrollment threshold, students may be assigned to another elementary school within the district to ensure balanced class sizes and maintain instructional quality.

All district elementary schools follow the same curriculum, academic standards, and student support structures.

By completing registration, families acknowledge that school placement is subject to district capacity and assignment policies.
