November 17, 2011 Last night at the regular Board meeting, the discussion continued on possible options for K–8 reconfiguration. The encouraging news over the past three years is that kindergarten enrollment has grown each of those years. This year kindergarten enrollment is just over 300, the largest it has been in many years. While overall enrollment continues to decline, we are finding it necessary to consider options that will support our growing numbers on the elementary campuses. Foremost in the development of these options is a configuration that best meets the educational needs of the students within the parameters of facility capacity and the responsibility of being fiscally prudent. Several options have been presented, and as conversations continue variations of those options have developed.
