Conejo Valley Unified School District (CVUSD) serves most of Thousand Oaks and Newbury Park, plus portions of Westlake Village. This guide lists every CVUSD school, links to CA Dashboard performance data, and shows you how to verify the boundary assignment for any specific address.
How CVUSD boundaries work
CVUSD assigns students to schools based on the home address using attendance-zone boundaries. The district publishes a public address-lookup tool to verify any specific home's assignment.
Boundary changes happen periodically but are infrequent. The lookup tool reflects the current year's boundary.
