MapNetWEB is a
browser interface with MapNet, a database of information used by
Transportation and Central Registration. MapNet is an add-on
component to
the management software package Trapeze. This component of MapNetWEB
will help
parents identify the schools (elementary, middle, and high)
specified for students at a particular address. Instead of
looking at maps or reading zone descriptions to identify
attendance zones, parents will type in their home addresses.
This project is intended to be a service to the community. We would certainly
appreciate feedback from our parents.
Please
note the following points about the MapNetWEB school
locator database:
The school identified for a particular
address reflects the assignment for the current school year. The
Superintendent of Education is authorized to make adjustments to
attendance zones when a school's capacity cannot effectively
provide space for enrollments and programs.
You may need to try
several versions of your street name. There are some
inconsistencies in the way the database handles some words; for example,
although it recognizes the abbreviation Rd, it doesn't recognize
the word Road. (Caps are not necessary.)
The database will display only the schools that students living
at a specific address would normally be assigned to; re-assignments are not
reflected.
Special entity
schools and programs such as the Academic Success Center and the STEPS
program at 30th Avenue do not have attendance zones. Our two
district-wide magnet schools, Britt David Computer Magnet
Academy and Columbus High School, do not have attendance
zones. These schools and programs are therefore not listed.
There may
be errors in the display of information until adjustments
are made. If you believe that this is the case with
your particular home location, please email us at
jallen@mcsdga.net and
explain why you believe that the zone information is not
accurate.
Some new home addresses or
new streets could be omitted in these listings. Periodic
updates will be made, but if you need immediate
assistance, please call Central Registration at 748-2222
or email us at
jallen@mcsdga.net.
