How families get in

Long Elementary is assigned by home address. Families should verify the exact address through CCSD zoning before enrolling or making a housing decision.

  • Look up the exact street address through the CCSD zoning tool.
  • Register through standard CCSD enrollment for the assigned zoned school.
  • Long is not listed as a district elementary magnet.
  • Out-of-zone enrollment or a zone variance, if available, follows current district Choice rules and campus capacity.

Before you decide

  • Zoning boundaries can change.
  • Out-of-zone access is not guaranteed.
  • Confirm current rules and capacity on official CCSD and school pages.

Always re-check zoning for a specific home address.

Who it tends to fit

A good match when

  • You live in the Long attendance zone or plan to move into it.
  • You want a neighborhood elementary school rather than a commute to a magnet campus.
  • You are prioritizing school culture, logistics and classroom feel, then reviewing clubs and activities during a tour.

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 large-elementary environment would not suit your family without first seeing the campus.

Visit if possible and confirm current enrollment, capacity, programs and daily routines with the school.
