The feedback we have received indicates an overall favorable tone around Option A with bus transportation provided for those in the area on the map marked 55F and 55B (Summerwood east of Deussen Parkway) to Elementary School #29. Additionally, Option A includes a Flex Zone from Balmoral (Ridge Creek and Groves Elementary Schools attendance areas) to Elementary School #29 to help manage enrollment at RCE and GE. Option A also phases out the Lakeshore Flex Zone to Groves.  

What is a Flex Zone?
In Flex Zones, students have the option of attending the school to which they are zoned or attending the new school with bus transportation provided. Balmoral Section 1 is a Flex Zone with students having the choice of attending Elementary School #29 or staying at Ridge Creek Elementary School. It is likely that Balmoral will be zoned to Elementary School #29 in future years because the county has indicated plans to build a bridge over a railroad track that would allow for Timber Forest Drive to connect Balmoral to Lakewood Pines.

Will my area be served by a school bus when attendance boundaries change for the 2020-2021 school year?

Is the district’s demographer trustworthy?
Yes. Population and Survey Analysts (PASA), based in College Station, is the largest demographic firm in Texas and has specialized in working with public school districts since 1980. In addition to helping Humble ISD manage growth, PASA has helped Cypress- Fairbanks ISD, Frisco ISD, Highland Park ISD, Katy ISD, Klein ISD, Leander ISD, Waco ISD and many other districts.
