A District-Zoned Public School is a traditional neighborhood public school. It is the most common type of public school. These schools are run by a countywide school district led by a superintendent and an elected school board. Funding is provided by various public sources.

Enrollment is open and free to the public. Attendance is usually based on zoning and home zip code of the student, although Change of School Assignments (COSA) are available. Parents/guardians of new students may register through their local school district or by visiting their district zoned school. Parents/guardians of current students may access registration by logging into their school account.

Zoning refers to what neighborhoods and areas are served by what schools. Going outside of this zoning can affect transportation and whether or not students can use the provided bus routes. Bus eligibility information can be found on your school district’s website or at your neighborhood school.

Visit your local school district for information on registration, transportation, and zoning.
