The Alpine School District split

Utah County voters approved dividing the large Alpine School District into three smaller districts. Beginning with the 2027 to 2028 school year, Cedar Hills is set to move into the new Aspen Peaks School District, alongside Alpine, American Fork, Highland, and Lehi. School names, boundaries, and feeder assignments could be adjusted through that transition, so verify any assignment with the district before relying on it.
