How do I determine
if my child will attend Willow Grove?
|
|
|
To find the school
your student will attend, the District has provided two references on their website to
assist you in finding the school your students will attend.
-
Please use the school
boundary address lookup system by clicking
here.
Make sure to use the 2007-2008 school year when entering your address, your entire
house number, and just the first three letters of your street name: i.e., Avenida
de los Lobos would be entered as Ave. The system will locate your address and
provide different choices if there is more than one street address that is identified.
-
To view the entire
boundary of the proposed school, please
click here. This will produce a color map of all elementary boundaries
within the District. Click on the area that is identified as Elementary School
No. 25 (reddish rose in color) and the boundary map will appear.
