As Building a Better Future was approved by voters, attendance boundaries will change at the elementary and middle school levels. This means fewer students would be impacted. Additionally, parameters will be adhered to more positively, e.g. reasonable bus rides.

Community members, families and staff will all have a chance to be involved in the attendance boundary process, including helping to determine parameters, specific impacts, etc.

Enrollment trends were expected to grow when the land was purchased. That expected growth is being seen and experienced in our schools today.
