Dilworth Elementary — Latta Campus

One of two campuses making up Dilworth Elementary, a longstanding CMS school serving Dilworth and parts of South End.

Type: public
Grades: K–2 (varies by campus configuration)
Location: Dilworth, adjacent to South End

Dilworth Elementary operates across two physical campuses — Latta and Sedgefield — serving families in Dilworth and adjoining South End neighborhoods. The Latta campus has historically handled a portion of the school's grade span, with students moving between campuses as they progress, a structure that's specific to this school and worth understanding before assuming a single building serves all grades.

The school draws families from Dilworth's established streets as well as newer South End residential buildings whose boundary assignment falls within its zone. Because South End's rapid multifamily construction has added significant household volume in recent years, assignment boundaries in this area have been adjusted before and could be again.
