GUIDING PRINCIPLES How Does FAC Fairly Analyze Different Options? • School facilities should offer a welcoming and engaging environment designed for 21st ‐ century learning • School facilities should provide space for future enrollment growth • School facilities should represent good value • School facilities should be equitable and align with community values
OPTION DEVELOPMENT BACKGROUND 2015 Long ‐ Range Facilities Planning Committee generated 5 options Grade transitions model (entire Cottage Grove grade stays together) ● Neighborhood schools model (Cottage Grove school divided by attendance ● zones) 2016 Options narrowed by Board based on various academic, social and financial factors
CURRENT GRADE CONFIGURATION Our Conclusions • There is no single best grade ‐ configuration model. The District can operate effectively under different grade configurations. • There should be District ‐ wide alignment in the transition to Glacial Drumlin at 6th grade. • The grade structure should, to the degree possible, avoid bussing children out of their home communities. • Long ‐ term consistency is important.
