Check the exact street address through the CCSD zoning lookup. Neighborhood names are not reliable.
Register through standard CCSD enrollment if Arbor View is the assigned school.
Out-of-zone access, if offered, depends on current School Choice rules and campus capacity.

Before moving or applying

Do not assume that a nearby home is zoned for Arbor View.
Do not assume that an out-of-zone seat will be available.
Re-check zoning because boundaries may change as nearby housing grows.

Zoning, capacity and Choice rules change. Confirm current information with CCSD before making a housing or enrollment decision.

Think twice when

Families outside the zone who are relying on open enrollment or a variance.
