Charles and Phyllis Frias Elementary School

About Frias Elementary

Frias is a neighborhood elementary school serving grades K–5. School life centers on core elementary academics, grade-level activities, clubs and other activities when offered.

The school is not listed as a district elementary magnet. Families seeking a STEM, IB, arts or STEAM magnet theme should compare the current elementary magnet options.

Specials such as PE, art, music and library or media are common in CCSD elementary schools, but families should confirm the current schedule with the school.

How families get in

Frias is assigned by home address. Families should verify the exact address through the CCSD zoning lookup and complete standard CCSD enrollment.

• Use the CCSD zoning lookup for the exact home address.
• Register through standard CCSD enrollment for the assigned school.
• Out-of-zone enrollment, if offered, follows current district School Choice rules.
• Out-of-zone placement depends on campus capacity and is not guaranteed.

Zoning, capacity and enrollment rules change. Confirm current information on official CCSD and school pages.

Fit depends on the individual student. Club offerings, capacity and school conditions can change.
