Attendance zone and feeder schools
CMS assigns students to schools by home address, and zones do not follow city limits. Check an address with the county’s GeoPortal school lookup or the CMS 2026-27 feeder boundaries map.
In CMS’s current assignment data, which lists the zoned schools for every home parcel in Mecklenburg County:
- Elementary zones that feed it: Rama Road Elementary, Greenway Park Elementary and Idlewild Elementary; part of Lansdowne Elementary and Esperanza Global Academy zones.
- High school: every address in the zone goes on to East Mecklenburg High.
As a magnet school it also takes students from outside the zone through the School Choice lottery. Students have priority for magnet programs in their own transportation zone, the district’s Themes & Schools page says.
Boundary review: CMS is redrawing school boundaries after its 2024 comprehensive review. The final boundary plan goes to the Board of Education on Monday, Oct. 26, with a public hearing Tuesday, Nov. 10, and a board vote Tuesday, Dec. 8, according to the district’s review page.
