The administrative staffs recommended attendance zones involve modification of an attendance zone for the schools identified below. The rezoning proposals aim to modify school attendance zones for three targeted areas for the 2026-2027 school year. The current proposals for modifying school attendance zones are for the schools below. A. Targeted Rezoning Chain of Lakes MS/Carver MS: Middle schools potentially impacted include Chain of Lakes MS and Carver MS B. Targeted Rezoning Ocoee MS/Robinswood MS: Middle schools potentially impacted include Ocoee MS and Robinswood MS C. Targeted Rezoning Cypress Creek HS/Lake Nona HS: High schools potentially impacted include Cypress Creek HS and Lake Nona HS The rezoning(s) would modify existing school(s) attendance zones in the general area to more equitably and efficiently distribute the student population at existing schools.

Anyone living or owning property in the attendance zone(s) of any of the school(s) listed above may be affected by changes to attendance zone(s) for the existing school(s) identified above.
