Nineteen Clark County School District schools, one of them not yet open, are named on the agenda for Tuesday's Attendance Zone Advisory Commission (AZAC) meeting, and all five rezoning items are listed "For Possible Action." The commission meets Tuesday, November 10, 2026, at 9:30 a.m. PT in the Board Room of the Edward A. Greer Education Center, 2832 East Flamingo Road, Las Vegas, according to the November 10 agenda posted on the district's Diligent Community portal.
Nothing on that agenda changes a school zone by itself. AZAC is a volunteer commission appointed by the Board and the Superintendent, and its job, per the district's About AZAC page, is to recommend boundary changes to the superintendent and the Board of School Trustees. A vote Tuesday can move a scenario forward, table it, or send staff back for another map. Trustees make the final call later in the season.
Which CCSD schools are on the November 10 AZAC agenda?
The agenda lists five focus areas. Region numbers come from the AZAC Phase 2 page.
Focus Area E1 (northwest valley, Region 1): a new attendance boundary for Joyce Woodhouse Elementary School, which opens in 2027, plus James H. Bilbray, Henry and Evelyn Bozarth, Marshall C. Darnell, Kenneth Divich, and William and Mary Scherkenbach elementary schools.
Focus Area E2 (Henderson, Region 3): Estes M. McDoniel, Jim Thorpe, and Harriet A. Treem elementary schools.
Focus Area M1 (Region 3): Francis H. Cortney Middle School and Barbara and Hank Greenspun Junior High School.
Focus Area H1 (Regions 2 and 3): Desert Oasis and Silverado high schools.
Focus Area H2 (Regions 2 and 3): Chaparral, Ed W. Clark, Desert Pines, Las Vegas, Rancho, and Valley high schools.
Only E1 has a new map attached for Tuesday. The other four items say "Reference material may be provided," which means a scenario could still be posted or handed out at the meeting.
How do I check whether my address is in a rezoning area?
Start with CCSD's Zoning Search map, linked from the AZAC site. Type your house number and street, and it returns the elementary, middle, and high school assigned to that address for 2026 to 2027. Our Zoning Search guide walks through units, new builds, and addresses the map will not find.
Then compare your school to the list above. If it is there, open the scenario map for your focus area on the AZAC Phase 2: Scenarios page and find your street. That page still shows only Scenarios 1 to 3 for E1; the new Scenario 4 map is in the November 10 reference file. The maps label the major streets along each boundary.
If you still can't tell, call Demographics, Zoning, and GIS at 702 799 6430. That is the office named on the agenda for copies, accommodations, and speaker sign up.
Focus Area E1: the new Woodhouse Elementary zone
This is the item most likely to move Tuesday. The reference file for agenda item 2.03 is a new option, Scenario 4, with a map dated October 28, 2026, and a student count table.
The student counts and capacity figures below come from the draft October 27 minutes and the November 10 reference file; the minutes may be corrected before approval, and the proposed scenarios may be revised.
According to that table, Scenario 4 would give Woodhouse a zone with 597 students who live there now: 552 from today's Divich zone and 45 from the shared Bilbray and Scherkenbach zone. It would then shift 247 students from Bozarth's zone to Divich, and 112 students from Darnell's zone to Bozarth.
Under that option, the table puts 811 zoned students at Divich, which has a capacity of 1,035. Bozarth would have 466 against a capacity of 618, and Darnell 569 against 604.
The Bilbray and Scherkenbach zone would hold 1,083 students, with capacities listed as 618 and 633. Those counts are students who live in each zone, not enrollment, so a school's real roster can be higher or lower once Magnet, Open Enrollment, and charter choices are counted.
Scenario 4 is not the option the public weighed in on. The draft October 27 minutes, attached to Tuesday's agenda for approval, describe Scenario 3. It moved 339 Divich students and the same 247 Bozarth students to Woodhouse, along with the 45 from Bilbray and Scherkenbach and the 112 Darnell students to Bozarth. Commission staff told members 22 public comments had come in on E1: 14 supported Scenario 3, four opposed rezoning, and four came from concerned parents. Chair Nicholas Fedei said he supported Scenario 3.
By CCSD Insider's comparison, Scenario 4 changes two things. The 247 Bozarth area students would go to Divich instead of brand new Woodhouse, and Woodhouse would take 552 Divich zone students instead of 339.
Why now: trustees approved siting a new northwest elementary school on March 27, 2025, according to the draft October 20 minutes, which tie it to growth in Skye Canyon, "more than 5,000 homes across 1,700 acres." The October 27 minutes list Divich at 1,082 students in a building with a capacity of 1,035 and 17 portable classrooms, Bozarth at 655 students for 618 seats, and Darnell at 619 for 604.
The Phase 2 page lists Trustee District B, Lydia Dominguez, for E1.
Focus Area E2: McDoniel, Thorpe, and Treem in Henderson
The only E2 scenario on file moves about 100 students who live south of Sunset Road, west of Interstate 11 (US 93/95), north of Warm Springs Road, and east of Valle Verde Drive from the shared Treem and Thorpe zone to McDoniel, according to the October 27 minutes. Staff said the reason is the Meriden development, 940 homes expected to add 128 elementary students. A Transportation coordinator told the commission October 20 that 50 students now bused to Treem and Thorpe could walk to McDoniel.
The minutes list Treem at 521 students for 525 seats with 13 portables, Thorpe at 412 for 568, and McDoniel at 334 for 532.
On October 27 the commission voted unanimously to table E2 and M1 "until after community meeting on November 19, 2026." Both are still on Tuesday's agenda, so a vote Tuesday would be a surprise, but the agenda allows one.
Focus Area M1: Cortney Middle School to Greenspun
M1 exists because of E2. If those Henderson elementary students move to McDoniel, they would no longer feed the same middle school as their classmates, so Scenario 1 moves 52 students from Cortney's zone to Greenspun's, the October 27 minutes say. Current Cortney sixth and seventh graders could stay through legacy enrollment, and only incoming sixth graders and newly enrolled students would be reassigned.
Neither school is crowded. The minutes list Cortney at 862 students for 1,555 seats and Greenspun at 1,091 for 1,516.
Focus Area H1: Desert Oasis and Silverado high schools
This is the biggest number on the agenda. Scenario 1 moves 804 students who live in the Desert Oasis zone to Silverado, according to the October 27 minutes. Desert Oasis has 3,253 students for 2,579 seats, 126.13 percent of capacity, with 24 portable classrooms. Silverado has 1,778 students for 2,591 seats.
The change would phase in. The minutes say current ninth, tenth, and eleventh graders at Desert Oasis may get legacy enrollment, and only incoming freshmen and new students in the area would be assigned to Silverado each year. Asked about bus time, a Transportation staff member said the longest route from Desert Oasis to Silverado would take about 35 to 40 minutes.
Commissioners pulled in different directions. Tim Vicario asked about moving the boundary line from Jones Boulevard to Decatur Boulevard because of ride times. Brandon Davis asked for a scenario that moves more students out of Desert Oasis. Staff said other relief is coming, including a 400 seat addition at a nearby Career and Technical Academy (CTA) expected in fall 2028. The commission tabled H1 "until after the Facility Master Plan meeting on December 1, 2026."
The minutes say no public comments had come in on H1 as of October 27.
Focus Area H2: Chaparral, Valley, Las Vegas, and three more high schools
H2 starts with a rebuild. The board's March 4, 2026, Capital Improvement Program revision calls for replacing Chaparral High School with a new building expected to open in fall 2029, with a design capacity of 1,800, according to the October 20 and 27 minutes. Chaparral has 1,932 students now.
Scenario 1 moves 293 students from Chaparral's zone to Las Vegas High School and 200 to Valley, plus 204 from Desert Pines, 65 from Rancho, and 42 from Clark to Valley. Scenario 2 is the same except that it moves 75 Chaparral students to Las Vegas High and 54 to Valley. Current ninth through eleventh graders may get legacy enrollment, the minutes say.
The capacity math is tight. The minutes list Las Vegas High at 2,501 students for 2,458 seats and Desert Pines at 2,528 for 2,304, with 42 portable classrooms.
Valley, the main receiving school, has 2,073 for 2,566. No H2 vote has been taken.
What happens after Tuesday?
AZAC's home page lays out the season: scenarios in October and November, proposals in November and December, and recommendations from January to March. The tentative meeting dates, dated August 1, 2026, list more regular meetings on November 17 and 19 and December 1, 8, 10, and 15, then evening public input meetings at 6:00 p.m. on January 11, 12, and 13, 2027, regular meetings January 19 and 26, and a last meeting March 9, 2027. The district calls those dates tentative.
Look at that January week next to the School Choice calendar. Magnet, Open Enrollment, and Central Technical Training Academy applications for 2027 to 2028 close Tuesday, January 12, 2027, at 3:00 p.m., according to magnet.ccsd.net. If AZAC keeps its tentative schedule, families in these zones would file School Choice applications before the public input meetings end and before trustees vote. If a new zone matters to your decision, file by the deadline anyway. Our Open Enrollment guide explains how that application works.
AZAC's Phase 4 page says recommendations "will be presented at a Board Meeting in late February," and changes trustees approve "become effective at the beginning of the next school year." Until trustees vote, every number above is proposed.
How to speak or send a comment
The agenda sets the rules:
Speak in person: Call Demographics, Zoning, and GIS at 702 799 6430 during business hours, at least 8 business hours before the 9:30 a.m. start, or sign up in person right before the meeting. No one can sign up after the chair introduces the item. Speakers get 3 minutes, after staff presentations and commission discussion and before the vote.
Written comments: Email azacmeetingcomments-user@nv.ccsd.net at least 8 business hours before the start. Comments that come in later, before the meeting ends, are uploaded to Diligent Community under the item the next business day.
Watch: The AZAC site links a live stream on the district's Eduvision channel, and past meeting videos are posted on the AZAC Meetings page.
Interpreters and accommodations: Call 702 799 6430 at least 24 hours ahead for Spanish or another language.
If you miss the 8 business hour window for Tuesday, the same rules apply to every AZAC meeting, so a comment on E2 or M1 before the November 19 community meeting, or on H1 before December 1, still lands while those areas are open.
For a zoning question about a specific address, call Demographics, Zoning, and GIS at 702 799 6430. The office is at 1180 Military Tribute Place, Henderson.
