• Wake could put student enrollment caps on these 18 schools in 2026. See the list (newsobserver.com) — Families zoned for Zebulon Elementary should know the school may get an enrollment cap for 2026–27 because it’s already nearly 119% over capacity, with overflow students likely sent to Wakelon Elementary in Zebulon. Wake County staff will also lift caps from five other schools as they rebalance crowding across the district, with the school board expected to vote in January.
