General Information: School Attendance Zones

6-8 grade configuration for most middle schools
Moving sixth-graders from elementary to middle schools also is helping relieve overcrowding problems in elementary schools and accommodate future growth. Used increasingly throughout Texas and around the country, this configuration allows more time for establishing quality relationships among students, teachers, parents, and the school.

Return to neighborhood schools and align feeder patterns
By making all school attendance boundaries contiguous, students attend schools closer to home. In most cases, school buses no longer pass schools close to where students live in order to deliver students to more distant schools. With the realignment of school feeder patterns, students from neighboring elementary schools will feed into the same middle school and then the same high school.
