How families get in

  • Use the CCSD zoning lookup for the exact home address.
  • Register through standard CCSD enrollment for the assigned school.
  • Monaco is not listed as a district middle-school magnet.
  • Out-of-zone access, if offered, depends on current School Choice rules and campus capacity.

Before relying on a placement

  • Zoning boundaries can change.
  • Open enrollment or a zone variance is not guaranteed.
  • Confirm current rules and campus capacity on official CCSD pages.

Always re-check zoning for a specific address before closing on a home.

Who it tends to fit

A good match when

  • You live in the Monaco zone, or plan to, and want a neighborhood middle school in northeast Las Vegas.
  • Your student wants fine arts or mariachi electives without a separate district magnet application.
  • You prefer a local school rather than commuting to a magnet campus.

Think twice when

  • Your address is outside the zone and you are relying on open enrollment.
  • You want a district magnet seat with a specialized application pathway.
  • A large-middle-school environment or possible crowding is a concern.

Arts offerings are campus programming, not a CCSD Magnet School designation. Visit and confirm current electives, enrollment conditions and campus capacity.
