Neighborhood Schools

Overview

Elementary, middle, and high school students are assigned to a designated neighborhood school based on where the student lives, as long as the school offers the services the student needs.

Each neighborhood school has a defined geographic boundary and is intended to serve the students who live within that geographic boundary.

To determine your child’s school of attendance based on school boundary, please call the Enrollment Center personnel at (916) 643-2400 or use either our Interactive Map or Neighborhood Locator tools below.
