FAQ
ARE STUDENTS ABLE TO ATTEND SCHOOLS OUTSIDE THEIR ASSIGNED SCHOOL?
WHAT SCHOOL DISTRICT IS ALAMAR IN? Alamar is located within the Littleton Elementary School District and the Tolleson Unified High School District, which has many schools nearby. Alamar has also reserved a 21-acre elementary school site for a planned new K–8 school within the community. Walkable from every neighborhood in the community, the centrally located school is expected to have six acres dedicated to sports fields and recreational spaces . WHEN WILL THE ALAMAR SCHOOL OPEN? The K-8 school in Alamar is anticipated to open for the 2023 -2024 school year. WHAT SCHOOL WILL MY CHILDREN ATTEND? Littleton ESD has adopted one district boundary, that allows families to request programs at schools across the district that are of the most interest and benefit to individual students. Elementary and middle school students residing in Alamar can attend any within the Littleton Elementary School District based on availability. School bus routes are available directly from the district. All high school students will attend La Joya Community High School. Individual schools are subject to changes in attendance boundaries. Please contact each respective school district for the latest information.
Private schools are not funded or operated by federal, state or local governments. They are not paid for by public tax dollars and are not subject to the regulations that govern public schools. At private schools, students pay tuition to attend.
Arizona state law allows students to apply for admission to any state public school, based on available classroom space. Applications are approved on a year-by-year basis with no guarantee of continued enrollment. WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A PUBLIC SCHOOL, A CHARTER SCHOOL AND A PRIVATE SCHOOL? Every school has its own personality, focus, traditions and reputation in the community. School choice is based on academic offerings, athletics, mission and vision of the school. Public schools are universal, and available to everyone. Public schools and high schools are funded and controlled by The United States Department of Education on the federal level, state-level departments of education and by the school district at the local level. Each school district sets the curricula, funding and employment for schools within their boundaries, with direction from the state. Charter schools are independently managed, tuition-free schools, that are state-funded in a manner that is distinct from how traditional schools are funded. Charter schools operate under a “charter” or a contract between the school and the state or jurisdiction, allowing for autonomy and flexibility. In Arizona, charter schools serve more than 190,000 students across the state.
HOW CAN I ACCESS MORE INFORMATION?
It is always best to contact the school district or the individual school directly for information concerning enrollment, district boundaries, or the status of individual schools.
