ABOUT

 

The Central School District (CSD) is the temporary name for the area encompassing the new school district in Northern Utah County. The future school board will select the final name. CSD is coordinated through an interlocal agreement signed by the cities of Alpine, American Fork, Cedar Hills, Draper, Highland, and Lehi.

Discussions regarding the creation of a new school district have focused on whether the it could provide more direct representation for local decision-making, better represent the unique and diverse needs of the six cities, and more equitably invest in education funding for children in the communities.

After a dozen public hearings, city councils unanimously voted to place the proposal, listed as Prop #11, on the November 5, 2024 ballot. Prop #11 ended up passing with a majority of voters voting FOR the creation of a new school district, which means voters will get the opportunity to elect a new school board in November 2025, with the board beginning operations in July 2027.
