Displaced students from the former Levering Elementary School may have already found a home, but the School District of Philadelphia just released boundaries for new students.

The district officially announced catchment boundaries for elementary school students in Roxborough, Manayunk, Shawmont, and Wissahickon. These would impact new enrollees for the foreseeable future—or at least until the district announces school closing plans for the 2013-14 school year.

After Levering closed in June, current students had the option of attending Dobson Elementary School, Cook-Wissahickon Elementary School, Mifflin Elementary School in East Falls, or AMY Northwest Middle School—which now occupies the Levering building, according to district spokesperson Deidre Darragh.

This new catchment list applies to new students enrolling with the district.

In the new boundaries, available on the district's School Finder website, Dobson, Cook-Wissahickon and Shawmont Elementary School absorb the territory.

More or less, Dobson assumes the Levering area below Ridge Avenue to Manayunk. Starting from Leverington Cemetery, Shawmont takes the area between Ridge and Henry Avenues and goes northwest. Cook-Wissahickon takes the smallest section—the area directly across the street from Levering and toward Wissahickon.

The new areas bound the three schools as follows:

• Dobson: 
  • Lemonte Street, from Ridge Avenue to the Schuylkill River; 
  • Ridge Avenue, from Lemonte to Roxborough Avenue;
  • Main Street, Leverington Avenue to Gay Street;
  • Roxborough Avenue, from Ridge Avenue to Silverwood Street.
• Cook-Wissahickon:
  • The western side of Lincoln Drive to Roxborough Avenue;
  • Main Street, at Gay Street, past Henry Avenue, to the Wissahickon;
  • Ridge Avenue, from Leverington Cemetery to Main Street;
  • Roxborough Avenue, from Ridge Avenue to Silverwood Street.
• Shawmont Elementary:
  • Ridge Avenue, from the city limit to Lyceum Avenue;
  • Umbria Street, starting at Lemonte and up through Shawmont;
  • Henry Avenue to Ridge Avenue—starting near Janette Street/Green Lane and Leverington Cemetery.

According to Darragh, "the schools in that area will receive maps and a letter to explain the new boundaries."
