Voter Information
District Lookup
Check whether your street address appears to fall inside the School District of the City of Pontiac boundary.
Do You Live in the Pontiac School District?
Your address decides whether the Pontiac school board election appears on your ballot.
The School District of the City of Pontiac boundary does not necessarily follow the City of Pontiac municipal boundary. A person’s city, ZIP code, or mailing address alone may not determine which school district serves their address.
Use the tools below to check whether your street address appears to fall within the Pontiac School District boundary.
Check your street address
We compare your address against the official U.S. Census school district boundary file for the School District of the City of Pontiac.
Important: This website’s district-boundary lookup is an informational resource and is not an official determination of voter eligibility. Municipal boundaries, mailing addresses, ZIP codes, precinct boundaries, and school-district boundaries may differ. Always verify your official voter registration, voting districts, polling place, and ballot through the State of Michigan.
We do not store or track the address you enter — it is used once for this lookup and never saved.

Tricky cases: split streets, PO boxes, and boundary changes
The situations that trip people up most often, answered plainly.
One important note: boundaries split individual streets and even subdivisions, so a neighbor can be in a different school district than you. Your official voter record and sample ballot are always the final word — this page is a guide, not a legal boundary determination.
In the district? Now find where you actually vote.
Pick your precinct from the clickable Pontiac precinct list to get its polling place — plus the city council, township board, and county races sharing your ballot.
If the Pontiac school board race is on your ballot, you also help decide district millages and bond questions — the same ballot, the same deadlines listed above.
