Boundary Change Information

This webpage provides information to help you understand the changes that are coming to many of LAUSD's schools as a result of LAUSD's New Construction Program, as well as other attendance boundary changes.

To find out what will be happening at your school in the 2008-2009 school year (July 1, 2008 - June 30, 2009), go to the alphabetical Boundary Change List for School Year 2008-2009 and click on your school's name.

If your school is not on this list, it means its boundary is not being changed. Your school may be affected by other kinds of changes, however. To find out, contact your local school, your LAUSD Local District Office or call School Management Services at 213-241-6414.

LAUSD's New School Construction Program is a systematic approach to relieving overcrowding through the construction of new classroom space. As of December 2007, the program was valued at over $12.6 billion and will deliver about 165,000 new seats by the end of 2012.

In the process of relieving overcrowding, the New Construction program must move towards meeting these five important District-wide goals:

• Eliminate involuntary busing of students out of their home attendance areas
• Return all middle and high schools back to a traditional, 2-semester calendar
• Eliminate Concept-6 elementary schools, while maintaining current two-semester elementary schools on their current calendars
• Implement full-day kindergarten District-wide
• Return all elementary schools back to a traditional, 2-semester calendar

LAUSD is using a variety of project strategies to deliver new classrooms while meeting these five goals, including constructing new schools, placing modular units, re-opening closed schools, and expanding existing schools.

The addition of hundreds of new schools and thousands of new classroom seats makes it necessary to adjust many schools' attendance boundaries. These adjustments will ensure that overcrowded schools get the relief they need, and that the District moves closer to its goal of eliminating the need for students to be bused involuntarily.
