Amended Scenario 2A - Final Recommendation
Approximately 2,000 elementary and middle school students would be impacted by this scenario, which is about 320 fewer than January’s proposal and 120 fewer than the March proposal. Some of the strengths of this scenario are its low number of changes, functionality in our system, including efficiencies with building use and transportation services, elimination of non-adjoining geographic areas and an improved feeder-like structure as students would move with classmates from elementary to middle school. This scenario would last for the foreseeable future.
This final recommended scenario has two key adjustments based on input:
- Moving Fernbrook’s northwest boundary from Rush Creek Parkway further west to follow the natural path of Rush Creek in order to keep all families in the Sundance Woods neighborhood at the same school.
- Shift Osseo Middle School boundary north of Hwy 610 further east to match the Osseo Senior High School boundary.
Summary of elementary school impacts:
- Neighborhoods would remain mostly intact as more natural barriers – major roadways, parks, creeks and lakes – are utilized.
- All but one school building (OAK) would be within their own attendance boundary. This means students closest to each school would be able to attend and potentially walk there.
Summary of middle school impacts:
- The non-adjoining geographic areas that currently exist near North View Middle School would be eliminated.
- All but one school building (BMS) would be within their own attendance boundary. This means students closest to each school would be able to attend and potentially walk there.
