Board Approves School Boundary
After a brief summary of previous discussions, and considerable public input, the Board unanimously approved the recommended proposal of boundary option C that changes boundaries between Eastlake, Welby, Daybreak and Rose Creek Elementary Schools. The Board made this decision based upon feedback provided by parents in the affected area, future enrollment projections, and its impact on the least number of schools. This change is necessary to accommodate growth at Eastlake Elementary and will take effect the beginning of the 2012-13 school year.
