Who it tends to fit

A good match when

  • You live in the Rex Bell attendance zone and want a neighborhood elementary school.
  • Your child would benefit from staying local rather than commuting to a magnet campus.
  • You plan to compare school culture, logistics and classroom feel before reviewing current 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 busy or potentially crowded elementary environment would be a concern without first visiting the campus.

Zoning, capacity and program offerings can change. Verify current conditions with CCSD and the school.
