We all know that homes for sale in Lovejoy ISD is a hot commodity these days, in part because of its “exemplary” status from Texas Education Agency (the highest possible ranking). Serving most of the communities of Lucas, Fairview and a part of Allen, Lovejoy ISD is one of those districts that can be difficult to get into because of the many buyers interested in this area, but it can also actually be equally tough to determine where its borders actually are! Because the district was established in 1917 and roads and community boundaries have changed greatly since that time, you could find yourself buying in Allen, Texas thinking that it falls under the Lovejoy ISD boundaries, when in fact, the district’s border stops on the other side of your street!

If a home you’re looking at is in, say, Allen, Texas and you would like to ensure that your children are enrolled in Lovejoy ISD, you want to be sure that you’re looking in the right neighborhood. Here’s a link to a detailed map of LISD, which can be an invaluable resource if you want to make sure you are buying a home in Lovejoy ISD. If you’re wondering which school services each neighborhood, here’s a map of Lovejoy ISD’s attendance zones. As you will see, the border jots through neighborhoods and cuts off midway through a few streets. If that’s not confusing enough, a number of Lucas residents from Stonegate, a community in McKinney ISD, have recently petitioned to have a portion of their district transferred over to Lovejoy ISD, and talks of annexation are currently underway.

It’s understandable that every parent wants the best educational opportunities for their children, and many of our clients move to Lovejoy ISD because they’ve unfortunately been less than satisfied with other school districts. If you are looking for a great Lovejoy ISD realtor to help you through the process, work with the best: Matlock Real Estate Group. There are many individuals and websites out there to help you learn about the market and the area, but it simply doesn’t compare to talking with an expert.
