Wentzville School District Attendance Assignments For 2012-13 School Year

Wentzville School District Attendance Assignments For 2012-13 School Year

Construction in the Wentzville School District continues on schedule, and 20 new classrooms at South Middle School will be ready for students in August of 2012.

In order to alleviate crowding at Frontier Middle School and in preparation for the opening of the new high school in 2013, the District has begun the process of changing some school attendance assignments.

This is not a school boundary change for the elementary schools, but a change in school assignments for some middle and high school students. With nine elementary schools, three middle schools and soon a third high school, the District has an opportunity to realign attendance assignments so all of the students from three elementary schools attend one middle school, and all of those students attend one high school.
