School Placement Information

The District uses a centralized enrollment process. Your student's school placement is determined by: Proximity of student residence to assigned school (Refer to the District Boundary Map if you are not sure which school boundary you reside in.), Placing siblings in the same elementary school, Adjusting class size to available space, Providing services appropriate to student needs.

*Boundaries are subject to change in accordance with Policy No. 3130

On a regular basis, we are tasked with the responsibility of reviewing our school boundaries. Given the areas impacted by new(er) development, the density of housing, class sizes, and stability of student enrollment the district has found it necessary to adjust building boundaries. This has been done through a thoughtful, student-centered approach with a goal of creating boundaries that are guided not only by geography but a philosophy that ensures every school draws from a thriving, supportive neighborhood community.

School Attendance: 👆This school boundary map is used to assist in the placement of students. While the school boundaries and proximity of the student’s residence to potential school are important, the following considerations are also taken into account when placing students:

Allowing siblings to attend the same school,

Continuation at current school, unless otherwise requested by the parent,

Capacity within the general education grade,

The ability of the district to provide the necessary special education services,

If remediation services can accommodate student needs, and

If English Language Learner services can accommodate student needs.

Given the fluidity of several of the above factors, please do not use the boundary map alone as the basis for choosing a home. It is possible that your child may not be placed within the school boundary. If you have questions, please contact the Enrollment Office of the Burlington-Edison School District, at 360-757-3311
