Draft 1 of the 2024-25 Student Enrollment Proposal Released
Today, staff members presented the first draft of a new Student Enrollment Proposal to the Board of Education.
The draft includes proposed school assignment changes for the 2024-25 school year. Overall, we anticipate that only a very small percentage of students will be affected by this proposal.
Use our address look-up tool to see your proposed school assignments.
This is the beginning of a community conversation that is scheduled to conclude with the school board adopting a final plan on November 21.
You are encouraged to visit wcpss.net/2024enrollmentproposal for more information about the proposal and to check for updates as the process moves forward.
Why is this being proposed?
This year's student assignment proposal focuses on the opening of Woods Creek Elementary in July 2024. In addition, the proposal includes base assignment changes, calendar application changes and recommended stability rules in order to relieve capped/overcrowded schools and fill underutilized schools. These changes will provide an opportunity for students to attend a less crowded school and to have shorter bus routes.
The Board will also discuss options that allow families affected by this proposal the opportunity to apply for a stability transfer and remain at their current school without district transportation. Review the stability rules.
How can I ask questions and provide feedback?
The best way to provide feedback and ask questions about the proposal is to visit our online forum. This will ensure staff members, school board members and your fellow parents see your questions and feedback. Staff will create an FAQ webpage to answer questions. Staff members and board members will also review and consider all feedback as they work toward a second draft of the proposal and, ultimately, the final approved plan.
