West Ada School District

West Ada School District is Idaho's largest school district and the district that serves the CBH communities in Meridian, Eagle, and Star. If you are buying a new home in any of those three cities, West Ada is almost certainly the district for your address.

The {d.name} area: scenery and neighborhoods around the schools that serve CBH new homes

Which communities does West Ada School District serve?

Meridian, Eagle, Star, and parts of western Boise and Garden City.

School assignment is decided by the exact address of the home, not by the community name or the city on the builder's brochure. Two new neighborhoods minutes apart can feed different schools, and that distinction is precisely the kind of detail I check before my buyers pick a lot.

What grade levels does the district cover?

West Ada School District serves students from pre-k through grade 12 across its schools, from the neighborhood elementary level through high school. West Ada School District (Joint School District No. 2) is headquartered in Meridian, Idaho.

What is it like to buy a new home here?

West Ada, formerly the Meridian School District, is headquartered in Meridian and operates public schools across Meridian, Eagle, Star, and portions of western Boise and Garden City. Its high schools include Eagle High in Eagle, the Meridian high schools, and the Star area's elementary and middle schools, all under one district roof.

For new-construction buyers this matters more than it does in a resale: the newest neighborhoods in these cities are often built right on the edges of attendance boundaries, and an address can fall into a different feeder pattern than the neighborhood across the street.

The district is an active one, and school boundaries are reviewed as neighborhoods fill in. That is normal for a fast-growing district, and it is exactly why the address check matters before you sign.

Which CBH communities should I ask about?

CBH builds in Meridian, Eagle, Star, and West Ada School District is the district tied to those communities. Availability, lot maps, and price sheets change weekly, so the communities guide is the place to start, then ask me for the current inventory in the specific neighborhoods that interest you.

How do I confirm my address's school assignment?

Attendance boundaries shift as new neighborhoods open, and a new-build address sometimes sits in a corner of the district that feeds a different school than you expect. Confirm the feeder school for the exact lot address with West Ada's registration office before you commit, and I will do the same check on your side.

Boundaries, enrollment, and program offerings change, so confirm anything date-sensitive with the district directly. Equal Housing Opportunity.
