Important District News Regarding Possible School Configuration Changes
Why the District Is Considering School Configuration Changes
Due to many years of declining enrollment and reduced funding, the district is again reviewing how best to organize our schools to ensure long-term financial stability while continuing to provide strong educational programs for students. While enrollment seems to have stabilized currently, and the district has made significant cuts to maintain its traditional K-8 structure for the 25-26 school year, the district remains at high risk of over expending the budget. More work is needed for longer-term stability.
Two possible school configurations are being considered. These ideas are jumping-off points for further discussion. We will be gathering input, and the Board will be meeting for a work session to dive more extensively into these ideas along with a consultant who will help us brainstorm additional ideas. The work session is being scheduled for February 2nd at 5:30 pm and is open to the public to listen to the discussion. There will not be a Call to the Public at this session.
