0-5+ year discussion

• Convert 6th grade center back

to an elementary

• Convert High School to

9th-12th grades

• Convert Jr. High Schools (7th

– 9th) to Middle Schools (6th

• 8th)
• Current Elementary schools,
• ver capacity, as anAcipated.

Today’s Reality

• The 2018-19 TransiAon plan requires

aBendance areas be re-drawn.

• ABendance areas will be developed

based on school board parameters.

• Pearson transiAons back to its original

design as an elementary school.

• Middle School areas will incorporate

“feeder” elementary schools if possible.

• These changes while planned for, and

posiAve, are challenging as well. ABachments to current schools are real, and the change will be difficult for some.
