CCISD will open two new schools next year in its new Education Village, Bayside Intermediate and Clear Falls High School are all new schools. With the additional new schools, the district will be changing the school boundary areas. This change will affect over 3,100 students next year.

These changes won the approval of the School Boundary Advisory Committee on December 1, 2009, but still face public hearings and require the school board’s approval. 

Students who go to Seabrook Intermediate originally zoned to Clear Lake High School will now go to Clear Falls High School. Students who go to Bayside Intermediate will also go to Clear Falls.

Students at Clear Lake High School will come from Space Center Intermediate and a portion of Clear Lake Intermediate.

Stewart Elementary students will no longer go to League City Intermediate and then Clear Creek High School. Now they will go to Bayside Intermediate and then Clear Falls.

Hyde Elementary students will still attend League City Intermediate but will no longer go to Clear Creek High School. They will go to Clear Falls.

Students who go to Ralph Parr Elementary will go to Victory Lakes Intermediate, but then will go to Clear Creek High School instead of Clear Springs High School. Victory Lakes students will split up in high school, with those east of I-45 going to Creek and those west of I-45 going to Springs.

Students at Mossman Elementary School will to Bayside Intermediate and then Clear Falls because all of the campuses are located in the Education Village.            

Students at Whitcomb Elementary will go to Clear Lake Intermediate, but then they will attend Clear Lake High School. 

The 27 member School Boundary Advisory Committee has been discussing this issue for at least six weeks, and is now ready for input from parents and students. The community volunteer committee will contribute to the attendance zones for some high schools and intermediate schools. There were public-hearing meetings on Tuesday, December 15 at Clear Lake High School and on Thursday, December 17 at Clear Creek High School from 7 to 10 p.m.

“There will be two public hearings over the next two weeks and we encourage parents to attend one or more of the hearings to provide their input,” CCISD Public Information Director Elaina Polsen said.

In the past, CCISD practice has been to have incoming juniors and seniors at their current high schools.

      The committee plans to present its final recommendations to the CCISD school board on January 25,and the board hopes to make a final decision on that day.
