Conejo Valley Unified serves Thousand Oaks, Newbury Park, and the Ventura County portion of Westlake Village. Below is the direct answer, the detail behind it, and exactly how to verify it for your specific situation.
Direct Answer
Conejo Valley Unified serves Thousand Oaks, Newbury Park, and the Ventura County portion of Westlake Village. The Westlake Village county line is the recurring trap: the Los Angeles County side of the city is served by Las Virgenes Unified instead. Attendance boundaries within the district are parcel specific, so verify any individual address with CVUSD directly, especially for purchases premised on a particular campus.
Why this question matters
CVUSD anchors one of Southern California's most consistently family driven housing markets, and like its neighbor LVUSD, it rewards being shopped as one district map: the same schools attach to meaningfully different price points depending on the community and tract.
The detail behind the answer
Thousand Oaks forms the district's core with the widest range of neighborhoods and price tiers, from condos to North Ranch estates. Newbury Park often offers the district's most attainable full size single family entry, with open space adjacency as its signature. The Ventura County side of Westlake Village completes the footprint and creates the county line confusion with LVUSD. Districts periodically study boundaries and facilities as enrollment shifts, and the Conejo Valley has seen such conversations, which is why purchases premised on a specific campus deserve written confirmation of the current assignment.
How to verify
Use the district's official lookup for the exact parcel, confirm for your student's entry year, and check whether any boundary studies are pending. The cross market view lives in my CVUSD homes by city hub, with the high school question covered in the high school zone comparison.
What I tell clients
Families anchored on a Thousand Oaks address sometimes find Newbury Park delivers the identical district with more house, or the right Westlake Village street delivers it with a different lifestyle entirely. The cross district shortlist, CVUSD against LVUSD and Oak Park Unified, beats the single city search nearly every time.
