2019-20 Elementary Attendance Areas
Dear Families,
The Iowa City Community School District Board of Directors approved new elementary attendance areas for the 2019-20 school year. The new boundaries were approved during their November 27 board meeting.
The updated maps can be found on the District website at the following link: www.IowaCitySchools.org/DistrictMaps.
In addition, the District’s Attendance Area Look-Up links have been updated to reflect the approved boundary changes. The Attendance Area Look-Up links provide school information specific for your home address. The links can be found on the District website at the following link: www.IowaCitySchools.org/AttendanceAreaLookUp.
Junior high and high school students may also be impacted by these changes. Please be sure to check the Attendance Area Look-Up link above to determine if changes to the elementary boundaries have affected your student.
Sincerely,
Stephen Murley
Superintendent
Iowa City Community School District
from Mrs. Paisar
