How families get in

Katz is a zoned elementary school. Families should verify their exact home address before registering or making a housing decision.

  • Use the CCSD zoning lookup to confirm the assigned school for a specific street address.
  • Register through standard CCSD enrollment if Katz is the zoned school.
  • Out-of-zone access, if offered, follows current CCSD Choice rules and depends on campus capacity.

Confirm your zone

  • Attendance boundaries can change.
  • Open enrollment or a zone variance is not guaranteed.
  • Check current rules and capacity with CCSD.

Katz is not listed among CCSD elementary magnet schools. Families seeking a magnet theme should review the current district magnet catalog.

Who it tends to fit

A good match when

  • You live in the Katz attendance zone and want a neighborhood elementary school.
  • Your child would prefer staying local rather than commuting to a magnet campus.
  • You want to compare school culture, daily logistics and classroom feel before considering clubs and activities.

Think twice when

  • Your address is outside the zone and you are relying on open enrollment.
  • You specifically want a district STEM, IB, arts or STEAM magnet pathway.
  • A larger elementary-school environment or possible crowding would be a concern.

Visit if possible and confirm zoning, capacity, schedules and current programs directly with the school and CCSD.
