Vallivue School District covers the newer/fast-growing southern and eastern parts of Caldwell, carrying a real, disclosed enrollment spread (10,014-13,264 students depending on citation) and has specifically opened new campuses to handle fast Caldwell-area growth.
Caldwell School District: the older, northwestern area
Caldwell School District, a separate public district covering the older, northwestern part of the city, enrolls 5,394 students across 11 schools.
Confirm which district serves a target address
Because two distinct public districts serve Caldwell, families should confirm which one -- and which specific school -- serves a target address rather than assuming one citywide district.
