Approve Proposed Attendance Boundary Adjustments for Farnell and Davidsen Middle Schools

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Current student enrollment at Farnell Middle School is exceeding the capacity, while Davidsen Middle School (adjacent attendance boundary) has available capacity.  In order to provide relief to Farnell Middle School and balance enrollments between the two schools, an attendance boundary change is proposed to reassign students from Farnell Middle School to Davidsen Middle School.  These changes are proposed to be effective for the school year starting August 2016.

A parent information meeting was held at Davidsen Middle School on April 27, 2015, for parents to review the proposed boundaries and ask questions of District staff members. Attached is a summary of stakeholder outreach, enrollment projections for 2016-17, and maps depicting the proposed attendance boundaries for the two schools.
