Long-Term Planning:
Enrollment and Boundaries

As part of our long-term planning process, Northshore School District is reviewing enrollment and resources to ensure every student continues to receive the high-quality education our community expects and deserves. To use public funds responsibly and ensure all students’ access to staffing, programs, and services, approximately every 10 years we conduct a comprehensive review of changing enrollment trends to address imbalances across our schools. This is about making sure every student gets a high-quality education no matter which Northshore school they attend.
