Attendance Boundaries
An Updated School Attendance Boundary Map was approved following a months-long study by a 50-member Steering Committee, 100-plus community meetings and around 400 online comments received. The map will take effect in Fall 2025 when the new Terry P. Bradley Center opens Sanchez Intermediate to grades 7-9. In addition to populating the new school and new Clovis South Area, the update reviewed the entire district to ensure existing space was maximized for student learning. Taken into account were current school capacities, enrollment trends and future growth projections of our local cities and county.
Construction
- Hirayama Elementary at McKinley and Fowler avenues opened for TK-6th graders this year. Full completion of the new campus is expected in 2025.
- Terry P. Bradley Educational Center at Highland and Clinton alignment held its ground breaking. Work began on several common buildings and areas of the educational center shared by Sanchez Intermediate and Clovis South High. Sanchez is expected to open Fall 2025. Full completion of Clovis South will require additional funding.
Modernization and Upgrades
- Automatic Door Locking Systems for unmanned doors to provide a quicker safety response were installed in Phase 1 and 2. Additional phases are in progress with expected completion at all schools by Spring 2026.
- Mercedes Edwards Theatre added a backstage for performer dressing rooms, props and storage.
- Energy Management Systems were updated at multiple sites.
Measure A this Fall
On the November ballot, voters are deciding on Measure A, a $400 million facility bond measure that maintains the existing tax rate to repair and modernize older schools and complete Clovis South High School. Measure A was recommended by a 30-member citizens committee who spent months studying the facility needs and finances of the district. If approved, Measure A doesn't change the existing tax rate, it extends it to pay for needed facility repairs, safety upgrades and energy efficiency projects at every school, and the construction of classrooms to ease overcrowded conditions at CUSD schools. Measure A requires independent oversight and annual audits to ensure accountability. Learn more:
