Message from the Superintendent

At last night's Board of Education Meeting, the board approved a plan to open an Early Childhood Pre-Kindergarten program at McCord School and modify some of our existing school boundaries beginning in the 2024-25 school year. We are excited for this opportunity to expand our program to support our youngest learners. Attached to this message is the map of our plan for students districtwide who may be impacted by this change. Please carefully review the changes to your child's home school. We have developed a plan that will create more equitable class sizes across the district.
