Direct AnswerThe Las Virgenes Unified School District (LVUSD) serves roughly 70,000 residents across Calabasas, Hidden Hills, Agoura Hills, Bell Canyon, and the Los Angeles County portion of Westlake Village. It is consistently among the top-rated districts in LA County, anchored by Calabasas High School (a California Distinguished and National Blue Ribbon school) and A.E. Wright Middle School. LVUSD also operates a school-choice process, so the campus tied to a given address is the starting point, not always the final answer.

Which cities LVUSD serves

LVUSD covers five communities: Calabasas (median $1.85M), Hidden Hills, Agoura Hills, Bell Canyon, and the Los Angeles County side of Westlake Village (median $1.6M). The Ventura County side of Westlake Village is served by the separate Conejo Valley Unified School District (CVUSD) — the dividing line runs near Lindero Canyon Road.

The elementary feeder pattern

LVUSD elementary campuses include Bay Laurel Elementary (feeds Calabasas Hills and Calabasas Park Estates), Lupin Hill Elementary, Round Meadow Elementary, Chaparral Elementary, and White Oak Elementary (the LA-County side of Westlake Village). Attendance areas are drawn by tract.

Middle and high school

A.E. Wright Middle serves the Calabasas/Hidden Hills area; Lindero Canyon Middle serves the Agoura/west-Westlake side. High schoolers attend Calabasas High School or Agoura High School by attendance area.

How school choice changes the math

LVUSD honors an open-enrollment / school-choice process subject to capacity. A home’s assigned campus is the default, but families may apply to other LVUSD schools — verify current capacity and timelines with the district.
