The Bainbridge Island
School District is
seeking input on school configuration with an online survey.
The district held a series of well-attended public meetings in May
on the topic of a potential grade reconfiguration and school
closure. The survey is intended to solicit opinions from the
broader community.
A School Configuration Committee was convened last fall to examine reconfiguration as a way of cutting costs and maintaining educational programs in the face of declining enrollment and tightening budgets. The committee, which includes district staff, community members and school board representatives, recently decided to hold off on making a recommendation until 2014.
Materials from the committee’s study sessions and the public meetings are available on the district website.
