Next steps

The Building a Better Future plan was backed by voters in 2022 (Question 1Question 2) and 2023 (Question 1). Our strategic plan is being realized as a result of our community's investments as well as safety, learning, technology and school building needs. This means that every school and scholar will have an improved learning experience. 

Enhancements are starting to take shape with individualized learning and classroom technology. Planning is also underway for the school building projects portion of the plan. In total, 66 projects will be completed over a four-year span. 

Continue to stay tuned for the latest updates.

As Building a Better Future was approved by voters, attendance boundaries will change at the elementary and middle school levels. This means fewer students would be impacted. Additionally, parameters will be adhered to more positively, e.g. reasonable bus rides.

Community members, families and staff will all have a chance to be involved in the attendance boundary process, including helping to determine parameters, specific impacts, etc.

After much research and consideration, Crest View Elementary School has been chosen to be repurposed. This means Crest View’s students and staff will be moving schools in fall 2025 – the start of the 2025-26 school year.

Crest View was specifically chosen as the elementary school to be repurposed for a variety of reasons, including its central location to neighborhood schools, opportunity to expand to offer more community services and lower student enrollment that is reaching unsustainable levels.
