Public Forum to be held 10/21/14 on AISD schools Corey, Moore, and Wood....

When: Tuesday October 21st starting at 5:30 pm.

Where: Mary Moore Elementary 5500 Park Springs Blvd, Arlington, TX 76017.

Details:

In September, a committee of parents and principals was formed to study all issues related to re-evaluating the boundaries for Corey, Moore, and Wood Elementary Schools.

The committee has researched the available options for a proposed boundary change to prepare for the Dual Language / Fine Arts Academy that will start at Corey Elementary in the fall of 2015. Templeton Demographics, the district's demographer, provided thee committee with draft boundaries as a starting point. The committee considered relevant data, including the following: student safety,; educational needs; future growth and school size; enrollment balance; feeder patterns for the elementary; junior high and high schools; and a desire to keep change to a minimum.

The proposal was presented to the Borad of Trustees at the Board's regular meeting Thursday, October 16, 2014. The proposal is detailed on the map below. The Board of Trustees is scheduled to take a final vote on the proposed boundary change November 6, 2014.

All parents and interested citizens are invited to attend the public forum. The majority of the forum's agenda will be allocated for audience questions and comments. Committee members and AISD administrators will also be present to hear your comments.

Note: The new Moore boundary adds the area NW of Andalusa Trail to I-20 and Hwy 287 as indicated in red lines. Wood is in Yellow with the addition being West of Kelly Perkins /Kelly Elliott to Green Oaks.
