ALAMEDA UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT
BOARD AGENDA ITEM

Item Title:Presentation on Interim School Enrollment Zones for New Enrollees to AUSD (10 Mins/Action)
Item Type:Action
Background:

On May 23rd, the Board voted to relocate students and staff from Lum Elementary School for the 2017-18 school year due to seismic concerns and not return students or staff to Lum without future Board approval.

 

While these actions have taken care of the students enrolled as of May 2017, we still have to place students new to Alameda. Currently, students moving into the former Lum Elementary Enrollment Zone do not have a “home school.” The changes proposed in the presentation will assign a school to new students coming into Alameda.

 

These temporary enrollment boundaries will allow families to know what zone they are moving into and will allow staff to be able to place students into a “home school.”

 

The temporary enrollment boundaries have been shifted for every elementary school in the district. These changes were made in order to accommodate the increased enrollment from the former Lum Elementary Enrollment Zone and to help balance enrollment at schools which have been consistently under or over enrolled.

 

The temporary enrollment boundary changes are for students coming into the district as new students ONLY. Current AUSD students will not be impacted by these temporary changes.
