Buying a home in the district

Where it reaches

About 42% of the district's area is in the City of Clovis, 42% in the City of Fresno and 16% in unincorporated Fresno County, including Friant. Most of Clovis is inside it, along with much of north and northeast Fresno. Clovis West, Clovis North and Clovis South all have Fresno addresses.

City lines are not school lines

A Clovis address does not guarantee Clovis Unified. Small parts of Clovis are in Fresno Unified, near Peach and Ashlan, and in Sanger Unified. In Fresno, both Clovis Unified and Fresno Unified serve parts of the city, so check the district on every listing.

Why verify the address

The district's lookup assigns schools by address and grade year. New schools bring new lines: a 2023 Fresno Bee report covered boundaries for a new elementary near Fowler and McKinley avenues, then set to open in August 2024. With the Bradley campus opening in phases and 2 more elementary schools planned, check the assignment for the school year your student will enroll.

Bonds and taxes

The $400 million Measure A that voters passed in November 2024 extends the bond tax rate first set in 2012. Check the property tax details on any listing.

Clovis Unified, by the numbers

Stories from the district

• A high school older than its city

  Clovis High was founded in 1899. The City of Clovis did not incorporate until 1912, 13 years later.

• A school on the old mill site

  In 1937 the Clovis Rodeo Association bought the land where the lumber flume ended and the mill stood. A year later it sold part of it to the high school district for $1, and Clark Intermediate School is there today.

• A law school in the old high school

  Clovis High's restored 1920 building on Fifth Street in Old Town is now home to San Joaquin College of Law.

• Split down the middle

  The district's area is almost evenly divided between 2 cities: about 42% in Clovis and 42% in Fresno, with the rest in unincorporated county land.
