Who it tends to fit
A good match when
- You live in the Schofield attendance zone and want a neighborhood middle school.
- Garden learning or inclusion programming matters to your family, and you will confirm what is currently active.
- You prefer a local comprehensive school rather than applying to a magnet.
Think twice when
- Your address is outside the zone and you are counting on open enrollment.
- You need a district magnet pathway in environmental studies, STEM, IB or the arts.
- You are treating older program, festival or championship information as a current promise.
Schofield is a zoned comprehensive school, not a district environmental or STEM magnet.
