How families get in

Twin Lakes is a zoned CCSD elementary school. Assignment is based on the student’s home address.

Check the exact home address using the CCSD zoning lookup.
Register through standard CCSD enrollment for the assigned zoned school.
Out-of-zone enrollment, if offered, follows current CCSD Choice rules and depends on campus capacity.
Pre-K is not assigned through kindergarten registration. Families complete the CCSD Pre-K interest form, and the Early Childhood Department handles placement.

Pre-K placement

A seat at the zoned school may be offered when one is available.
ZOOM Pre-K has been state-funded in recent years, but families should confirm what is operating this year.

Zoning, capacity, transportation, and program availability can change. Recheck the specific address and current rules before making a decision.

Who it tends to fit

A good match when

You live in the Twin Lakes attendance zone and want a neighborhood elementary school.
Your child would prefer staying local rather than commuting to a magnet campus.
You want to evaluate school culture, logistics, classroom feel, clubs, and activities in person.

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 larger elementary-school environment would be a concern without first visiting.

Twin Lakes is not listed as a district elementary magnet. Clubs, activities, intramurals, staffing, and capacity may change.
