Adjustment of Trustee Area Map Boundaries (In anticipation of November 2022 Board elections)
Due to the population growth identified in the City of Brea during the 2020 Census, BOUSD is required to update their Trustee Area Maps. A demographer has provided two Trustee Area Maps that comply with the requirements of the Federal Voting Rights Act and California Education Code Section 5019.5.
The Board of Education evaluated and discussed two Trustee Area map scenarios with adjusted boundaries at the October 28, 2021 Study Session, and voted to select an updated map at the November 18, 2021 Board Meeting. The selected map was subsequently submitted to the Orange County Registrar of Voters to be used for the November 2022 Board elections.

FAQs
Why does an adjustment to boundaries on the current trustee area map need to occur?

Will this impact where my student goes to school?
