What it means for your family
Compare schools at your child’s level before deciding on an address. The strongest attendance-zone candidate is Rosemary at 21/100 — confirm the exact boundary with the district before the house.
11 of the 12 ranked schools are charters — enrollment paths that don't depend on your address. If your zoned school sits low in the appendix below, those lotteries and applications are the levers worth the paperwork.
A band is a position, not a prophecy — 3 campuses here rank as On the Rise (2) or Growth Engine (1), their returning cohorts gaining more than most schools statewide. Ask your school two questions: what happens for a kid who arrives behind, and what the classroom looks like for one who arrives ahead.
