Definitions• Extracurricular is defined as optional non-credit student

activities that are either Cultural, Athletic, Recreational, or Social in nature.

• Co-Curricular would be those activities that are somehow connected to a curricular program. Examples are DECA, FCCLA, Choir, Journalism, Newspaper, Yearbook, Band, Drama, The Orchestra

• Middle Level We will not use• Middle School Grades 5-8, 6-8, 7-8• Junior High Grades 7-9

10

Facts After much study, the School Configuration Committee (SCC) is

reviewing three alternate configuration options

9th graders will move up to high school in both all alternate configurations

Transitions impact student achievement

Current Junior High and High School buildings have additional capacity.

Few elementary schools have additional capacity

The School Board will make a decision after receiving a recommendation from the Superintendent following review of all data, options, and pros and cons from the SCC including feedback opportunities for community and staff

11

Facts Implementation of any changes would begin not sooner than 2015-

16

2012 Demographic Study indicates that enrollment will continue to decline slightly for five years and then level-off

Other districts have studied configuration, and for the most part have gone to a K-5, 6-8, 9-12

A configuration decision will be required to complete the Facilities Committee work on Phase Two of the Capital Projects Long Range Plan

HB 2776 includes recommendations for reductions in K-3 class size and statewide implementation of All Day Kindergarten

The Superintendent’s recommendation is scheduled for June 2013

12

Assumptions• One or more schools may close

• Over time, reconfiguration will provide a savings

• In terms of infrastructure and organizational resources, we have the capacity to reconfigure

• Reconfiguration may require facilities changes

• Any change made would have benefits for students

13

Considerations• Early identification of individual student needs for

support/intervention• Maximize options for student achievement• Professional Development – support and time• Emotional impact for students, families, staff• Balanced and efficient enrollments• Improve feeder system• Voter Confidence- timing of 2014 SSL election• Implementation plan• Grading Model integration• Cost integration with Capital Projects Phase Two• Time on the bus

14

Considerations• Athletic and activity programs • High School Athletic Classifications

(1A, 2A, 3A, 4A)• Building start and end times• Capacity for gym space, science labs, art classrooms,

music performance, special education and specialized Career and Technical Education (CTE) courses

• Non-District (ND) and Non-School (NS) transfer student data (in and out) along with student data for enrollment in online programs outside the district

• Grandfathering of current transfers

15

Key Questions• What are optimal building sizes?

• Elementary 450-500, Middle/JH 700-900, HS 1100-1300• What does the demographic study tell us about our future

enrollment?• Enrollment will continue to slowly decline over the next five years

mostly at the secondary level before leveling out somewhere above 10,000 students.

• What is the capacity for each building?• See additional worksheets (link)

• What facility modifications will be required and how will we pay for them?• Depends upon which configuration is selected. Modifications will

require Capital Projects Funds. Currently, all funds are committed except future Emergent Critical Repairs, which means that modifications would need to be included in Capital Projects Phase II

16

Key Questions• How will configuration meet the need of special education,

including preschool?• Does reconfiguration for all schools need to occur

simultaneously?• Will either option produce potential school closure?

• If the current class sizes (or close to current) continue, most options will produce a potential school closure. If K-3 class size is reduced, this answer could change based on the state funding, configuration selected and Capital Projects Phase II

• Is data available about 6th -12th grade students riding the same bus?

17

Key Questions: Boundaries

• What data tool do we use to determine the current grade levels and numbers within the current boundary lines? • PowerSchool

• Are clean feeders a requirement to our boundaries?• Any boundary changes have not been completed. There are

benefits for clean feeders, yet this may not be possible when boundaries are redrawn.

• What impact do NS/ND students have on creating new boundaries?• None. The option for NS and ND students waivers will be

determined after new boundaries are drawn.

18

Key Questions: Implementation

• What is our middle school structure/school philosophy, including sixth graders?• This question will be part of the implementation phase and highly

dependent upon which configuration is selected.• What Professional Development will support the changes?• How will student transitions be accomplished?• What athletic and activities programs will exist?• Will we extend or change special programs (TEAM,

Montessori, Venture, Special Education)?• What is the plan for implementation for the transfer/moving

process?• The implementation plan will be developed following a determination

of what configuration we will use moving forward.

19

Key Questions: Implementation• What support is required for students, staff and parents?• How will configuration impact the cost of transportation?

• The cost of transportation will be completed in the analysis of each configuration

• What is the communications plan?• The current communication plan will be focused on providing

updates and preparing for staff and community input opportunities.
