Description
Item 5.01 Superintendent's Recommendation on Phase 1 Redistricting (North)
Excerpt from the July 12, 2023 Board of Education of Anne Arundel County General Board Meeting. The full meeting can be viewed here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RLQBbyUt5M
B
All
right,
thank
you,
madam
president.
The
superintendent's
recommendation
on
phase
one
redistricting-
you
all
have
a
copy
of
it
and
we're
going
to
have
staff
that
will
take
us
through
this
process,
but
I
have
a
couple
of
items
that
I
need
to
mention
to
this
school
board.
The
members
of
this
community,
who
are
here
around
the
enormous
amount
of
work
that
has
taken
place
to
get
us
to
where
we
are
so
I.
B
Faced
early
on
in
my
tenure,
a
very
difficult
decision
that
we
had
to
make
around
redistricting
and
what
I
have
said
to
this
community
is
we
wanted
to
do
everything
to
operate
with
transparency?
You
will
hear
that
in
our
remarks,
but
also
what
you
may
not
hear
in
my
remarks
is
that
people
have
to
read
district
for
two
reasons.
B
But
then
you
still
have
to
create
this
level
of
discomfort
to
move
people
around.
So
it's
not
a
good
situation
any
way
you
look
at
it
or
you're
in
a
situation
where
you
have
to
read
District,
because
there's
a
lot
of
interest
in
your
school
system.
People
are
moving
in
and
you
have
to
balance
schools
to
address
overcrowding,
which
is
where
we
find
ourselves
here
in
Anne,
Arundel
County,
which
is
a
good
problem.
B
But
it's
still
a
bad
situation,
because
people
move
into
certain
neighborhoods
to
go
to
certain
schools,
and
that
then
creates
a
level
of
discomfort.
We
also
talked
about
the
fact
that
this
needed
to
be
done
in
two
phases,
just
because
of
the
significant
amount
of
stress
that
trying
to
do
whole
District
redistricting
would
put
on
the
school
system
whether
it's
Transportation,
whether
it's
shuffling
of
Educators
or
the
amount
of
students
that
have
to
move
at
one
time.
B
We
also
know
that,
with
that
comes
constraints,
one
of
the
constraints
that
it
inserts
or
one
of
the
realities
is
that
some
families
are
going
to
be
will
have
to
be
touched
twice,
and
we
recognize
that
that
will
be
the
case.
But
in
all
sincerity,
what
you're
going
to
hear
about
today
is
that
we
really
did
do
our
due
diligence.
We
really
inserted
significant
transparency
in
this
process.
Nobody
can
say
they
didn't
know
about
it,
because
otherwise
you
just
didn't
want
to
know
about
it.
We
put
it
out
there.
B
This
has
been
an
enormous
amount
of
work
on
the
part
of
a
lot
of
people,
and
I
am
grateful
for
their
efforts
to
get
us
to
this
point.
I
want
to
thank
Mr,
stansky,
Mr
roof
and
the
entire
team
for
looking
over
every
piece
of
input
we
received
and
working
tirelessly
with
our
consultant
to
try
to
see
if
it
was
something
we
could
incorporate
into
this
recommendation.
As
you
will
see,
there
have
been
some
significant
changes
from
the
two
potential
scenarios
presented
by
our
consultant.
B
B
B
There
are
a
few
things
in
education,
more
emotional
for
families
than
changing
the
schools.
Their
students
attend
I,
understand
that,
but
I
also
understand
the
crucial
need
to
optimize
the
use
of
our
school
buildings.
Also,
given
the
fact
that
Anne
Arundel
county
is
projected
to
be
the
fastest
growing
School
District
in
the
state
over
the
next
10
years,
we
have
to
do
this.
It
is
important
to
note
that
every
point
in
our
internal
deliberations
to
date
we
have
put
the
interest
of
Children
First
in
every
decision
we
have
made.
B
I
will
reiterate
that
children
first
and
you
will
hear
that
I
am
proud
of
the
work
that
has
been
done
to
get
us
to
this
point
and
I
look
forward
to
the
process.
That
remains,
as
we
come
up
with
a
final
plan
in
November
to
address
the
first
phase
of
this
redistricting
process,
with
that
I'll
turn
it
over
to
Mr,
stansky
and
Mr
Roof.
To
present
the
recommendation.
C
Right
we're
going
to
walk
you
through
the
superintendent's
recommendation
this
afternoon.
What
we're
going
to
do
is
we're
going
to
start
with
just
an
overview
of
the
process.
To
date,
then
we'll
walk
you
through
the
scenarios
that
the
consultant
had
put
together,
that
we
put
online
starting
in
February
scenarios.
One
and
two
we'll
give
you
an
overview
of
our
community
engagement,
get
you
some
data
and
some
statistics
around
that
engagement
and
we
will
walk
you
through
the
superintendent's
recommendation
and
we'll
go
through
next
steps.
C
All
right!
We're
going
to
take
about
10
seconds.
You'll,
hear
a
lot
of
acronyms
in
this
presentation
so
for
the
board,
and
the
public
just
wanted
to
have
give
you
the
ability
to
review
some
of
the
main
acronyms
that
you
may
or
may
not
hear,
and
and
so
we'll
take
about
five
to
ten
seconds,
to
just
look
that
over.
C
All
right,
let's
talk
about
the
overview,
so
what
are
the?
What
are
the
guiding
documents
and
principles
that
we're
we're
using?
There's
really,
you
know
two
main
areas
which
is
board
policy
Jaa
and
the
regulation
that
accompanied
that
as
long
along
with
education,
article
section,
4-109
and
really
what
we're
looking
for
here
is.
It
says
up
on
the
screen
to
establish
an
equitable
process
process
for
the
determination
of
the
geographic
School
attendance
areas
in
Anne,
Arundel
County,
Public
Schools,
so
Dr
Bedell
talked
a
little
bit
about
why
we're
doing
this.
C
But
why
are
you
know?
Why
are
we
doing
this?
Obviously
we
mentioned
we're
projected
to
be
the
fastest
growing
District
in
the
state
over
the
next
decade.
We
also
currently
at
the
moment,
have
16
000
available
seats.
That
means
we
do
not
have
enough
enrollment
for
the
for
the
number
of
available
seats
that
we
have,
so
we
need
to
right
size.
C
Obviously,
with
the
blueprint
coming,
we
have
two
big
changes
and
our
use
of
facilities
will
be
altered
as
well
main
areas
really
surrounding
pre-K
in
enhancements
and
expansion,
as
well
as
the
blueprint
calls
for
additional
teachers
due
to
planning
time
and
we're
going
to
need
spaces
for
those
teachers.
So
it's
really
critical
that
we
balance
our
enrollments
and
and
maximize
the
available
space
that
we
have
what's
really
started.
C
All
this
was
coming
online
in
the
24
25
school
year
will
be
two
new
schools,
West
County
Elementary
School,
along
with
Old
Mill,
West,
High
School.
Another
reason
to
do
this
really
is
to
maximize
our
CIP
dollars
the
state.
The
first
question
they
ask
when
you,
when
you're,
asking
for
a
new
project
or
a
renovation
dollars.
C
So,
let's
talk
about
the
process.
We've
gone
through.
To
date,
the
administration
back
in
September
of
21,
issued
an
advertised,
an
RFP
for
a
consultant
to
help
with
redistricting
that
the
sport
approved
that
consultant
in
November
of
2021
in
January
of
22
policy.
Jaa
was
revised
by
this
board
and
approved,
which
has
then
became
the
guiding
document
for
our
process.
Moving
forward,
an
initial
presentation
on
a
redistricting
timeline
and
process
was
presented
in
September
of
2022,
and
then
a
revised
process
and
presentation
was
given
in
January
of
2023
in
February
of
2023.
C
The
web
tool
with
the
two
proposed
scenarios
from
the
wxy
Consultants,
was
released.
We
gathered
feedback
for
the
next
three
months
and
then
staff
gave
a
series
of
recommendations
to
the
superintendent
and
the
leadership
team.
We
also
this
board
at
the
last
board
meeting
approved
the
2023
education
facilities
master
plan,
which
was
the
latest
available
data.
We
then
used
to
put
our
recommendation
together
and
today,
you're
now
hearing
our
recommendation
and
then
moving
forward
will
be
a
workshop
later
in
July.
C
D
So
the
primary
mission
of
the
study
was
to
define
the
attendance
area
for
the
new
Old
Mill
West
High
School
and
West
County
Elementary
School.
The
study
focuses
on
the
County's
Northern
High
School
clusters,
including
Chesapeake
Glen
Burnie
Mead
North,
County,
Northeast
and
Old
Mill
High
Schools
wxy
produce
boundary
scenarios
using
both
its
redistricting
model
based
on
Markov
chain
Monte
Carlo
simulation
software
and
manual
edits.
All
boundary
changes
developed
by
the
consultant
in
the
boundary
scenarios
were
individually
reviewed
by
wxy
and
aacps.
D
The
boundary
scenarios
included
a
set
of
shared
assumptions.
We
wanted
to
improve
utilizations
as
much
as
possible
so
that
they
fell
within
the
70
to
100
percent
Target
utilization
range.
We
wanted
to
reduce
the
number
of
schools
that
exceeded
100
percent
and
get
as
few
schools
as
possible
under
the
60
utilization
threshold.
That's
the
boundary
for
State
funding.
D
D
We
wanted
to
preserve
feeder
patterns
as
much
as
possible
minimize
distance
traveled
as
much
as
possible,
while
also
maximizing
the
number
of
pupils
in
the
walk
Zone.
We
wanted
to
account
for
new
development
within
those
attendance
areas
preserve
the
current
grade.
Bands
and
examples
of
that
would
be
to
maintain
the
pre-k
through
five
at
elementary
schools:
middle
schools,
six
through
eight
high
schools,
nine
through
twelve.
D
D
So
each
scenario
takes
a
different
approach
to
optimizing
boundaries
for
the
new
facilities
and
other
key
metrics.
The
current
slide
shows
key
metrics
relative
to
the
existing
School
boundaries.
Both
scenarios
significantly
reduce
the
number
of
over
utilized
schools.
If
no
boundary
changes
are
implemented.
The
district
is
estimated
to
have
13
over
utilized
schools
under
scenarios.
One
and
two
that
number
is
reduced
to
zero.
D
Both
scenarios
significantly
reduce
distances
to
school
for
elementary
school
kids
in
scenario.
One
the
reduction
of
daily
miles
traveled
for
elementary
schools
is
over
1900
miles
scenario.
One
achieves
the
largest
Improvement
in
distances
to
school.
Overall,
conversely,
middle
and
high
school
students
increase
their
distances
under
both
scenarios
scenario:
two
rezones
slightly
fewer
pupils
scenario:
two
rezones
19
percent
of
pupils
in
the
non-terminal
grades,
which
is
about
6
700
students
total.
In
both
scenarios,
the
most
impact
to
student
assignments
is
at
the
middle
school
level.
D
Articulation
patterns
for
scenario,
one
are
shown
up
on
the
screen.
Gray
lines
indicate
no
change
to
the
feeder
patterns.
While
Blue
lines
indicate
a
change
to
the
feeder
pattern
and
tan
indicate
a
split
articulation
in
scenario.
One
two
split
articulations
are
introduced:
George
Cromwell
elementary
students
are
zoned
to
both
Corcoran
middle
school
and
Marley
Middle
School
MacArthur
Middle
School
students
living
in
the
Frank
Hebron
Harman
Elementary
School
zoned
are
rezoned
to
Old
Mill
West
High
School,
rather
than
Mead
High
School.
D
When
we
look
at
scenario
1
utilizations,
we
see
a
reduction
in
overcrowded
schools
and
a
more
balanced
utilization
within
the
study
area.
Please
note
the
bottom
of
the
screen
where
we
list
the
estimated
utilizations.
If
no
boundary
changes
are
implemented.
13
schools
are
projected
to
be
over
capacity.
D
Our
transportation
division
compared
both
scenarios.
They
compared
the
number
of
existing
walkers
from
Scenario
one
and
two
and
found
that
there
was
no
significant
difference
between
those
two
scenarios
when
they
compared
the
estimated
walkers
from
Scenario
from
the
scenarios
to
our
current
numbers.
D
D
So
engagement
was
an
important
process
in
this
endeavor.
The
web
tool
was
introduced
in
February
2023.
The
initial
comment
period
extended
until
early
June.
During
that
time
we
received
33
000,
unique
website
users,
86
000
website,
page
views,
15,
000,
unique
address
searches,
2200
survey
responses
and
approximately
500
map
comment
reviews.
D
D
D
D
Boundary
comments
tended
to
be
highly
clustered
in
space
and
sentiment
as
such
boundary
comments
provide
an
indication
of
which
boundary
decision
that
are
most
popular
or
unpopular.
Neither
scenario
received
a
net
positive
approval
rating,
but
overall
scenario,
2
retained
a
more
favorable
rating
throughout
the
entire
engagement
period.
D
So
the
screen
shows
key
metrics
for
the
two
scenarios
presented
in
the
web
tool
as
well
as
the
super
superintendent's
recommendation
noted
as
s.
The
largest
difference
come
from
the
distance
traveled
and
assignment
stability.
The
superintendent's
recommendation
lowers
overall
distance
traveled
and
reduces
the
number
of
rezoned
students
relative
to
scenarios
one
and
two.
D
D
D
So
scenario,
two
boundaries
were
utilized
as
the
starting
point
for
the
superintendent's
recommendation
at
the
elementary
school
level.
A
notable
boundary
adjustment
that
differs
from
Scenario
two
is
in
the
Mead
cluster
circled
up
on
the
screen.
Many
of
the
students
in
the
area
circled
live
within
the
Fort,
Meade
boundary
and
Community.
This
group
indicated
a
strong
desire
to
stay
at
an
on-base
elementary
school.
D
D
At
the
high
school
level,
the
superintendent's
recommendation
makes
additional
adjustments
to
the
articulation
patterns
following
Middle
School
at
Corcoran.
Students
who
live
within
the
Oakwood
and
Woodside
Elementary
School
boundaries
will
attend.
Old
Mill
High
School
students
who
live
within
Freetown
Elementary
School
will
continue
to
attend.
Glen
Burnie.
D
Overall,
the
superintendent's
recommendation
includes
two
split
articulations
to
help
balance
the
secondary
school
enrollments
and
the
superintendent's
recommendation.
Two
split
articulations
are
introduced
at
MacArthur
Middle
School
students
living
in
the
Frank
Hebron
Harman
Elementary
and
Van
bockland
Elementary
School
Zone
are
rezoned
to
Old
Mill
West
High
School,
rather
than
Mead
High
School
and
Corcoran
middle
school
students
living
in
the
Oakwood
and
Woodside
Elementary
School
Zone
are
rezoned
to
Old
Mill
High
School,
rather
than
Glen
Burnie
High
School.
D
Once
again,
our
transportation
division
compared
the
superintendent's
recommendation
to
scenarios
one
and
two,
and
there
was
no
significant
difference
between
the
scenarios
they
compared
the
estimated
walkers
from
the
superintendent's
recommendation
to
our
current
numbers
and
again
there
were
about
200
more
bus
riders
under
the
new
scenarios.
This
is
primarily
due
to
the
articulation
pattern
adjustments
made
at
North,
County
and.
G
D
D
So
next
the
transportation
division
compared
the
superintendent's
recommendation
to
our
current
bus
routes.
Under
the
recommendation
there
is
an
increased
need
for
bus
transportation
within
the
study
area
and
it's
estimated
that
four
additional
units
would
be
required
to
transport
students.
This
is
the
same
number
under
scenarios.
One
and
two.
A
C
Right
so
we
did
have
a
long
discussion
about
Legacy
students
and
the
superintendent
is
recommending
implementing
that
we're
students
where
they
enter
the
12th
grade,
we'll
have
the
option
to
remain
at
their
existing
high
school
that
they
are
currently
assigned.
So
these
are
for
students
who
would
be
rezoned
to
a
new
high
school
they're
entering
the
12th
grade.
We
will
give
them
the
opportunity
to
stay
at
their
existing
High
School.
C
Two
two
big
caveats
here:
first:
is
they
should
they
would
need
to
register
in
our
what
we're
calling
Legacy
student
transfer
portal
so
that
we
know
where
their
option
is,
but
I
think
more
importantly,
that
they
would
not
be
provided
Transportation.
They
would
have
to
be
able
to
transport
themselves
to
and
from
school.
C
This
is
just
again
due
to
our
lack
of
infrastructure
around
our
capacity
to
essentially
do
double
runs
into
all
of
these
communities,
since
it's
such
a
large,
large
redistricting
that
we're
entering
into
so
that
is
the
that
is
going
to
be
a
recommendation
in
this
proposal
and
then
for
magnet
students.
Just
to
reiterate
that
magnet
students
already
assigned
via
Lottery
into
those
schools
will
be
able
to
stay
in
those
in
their
magnet
school.
Even
if
their
home
high
school
or
middle
school,
they
were
rezoned
to
a
different
school.
C
Next
steps-
we've
talked
a
little
bit
about
this,
but
to
reiterate,
we
will
be
or
reopening
the
comment
period
right
after
this
presentation
today
and
then
we
all
have
a
workshop
on
the
26th,
where
we'll
do
a
deeper
dive
for
the
board
and
the
community
and
obviously
a
lot
of
q.
A
on
that
during
during
that
meeting
and
then
ultimately,
on
the
23rd
of
August,
the
board
will
have
to
vote
to
select
a
which
option
or
options
to
take
to
public
hearing.
C
A
H
Okay
and
understand
I
understand
the
the
move
not
to
put
additional
cars
and
burden
on
the
Mountain,
Road,
Corridor
and
I'm.
Definitely
in
support
of
that,
but
it
does
actually
I.
Think
I
have
three
really
quick
questions,
so
this
is
the
second
and
then
I'll
get
that
to
the
third.
So
if
that
being
the
case
it
brings
the
under
it
brings
the
utilization
number
and
that
Middle
School
to
under
that
60
threshold.
C
Projects
is
Mr,
Roof
alluded
to
where
we'll
look
at
potential
administrative
use
of
that
space
or
storage,
which
you
know.
That
would
then
alter
the
state
rate
of
capacity
of
that
building
to
get
it
above
the
60,
but
no
firm
plans
in
place
as
of
yet.
But
that's
obviously,
would
be
the
next
step.
If
the
board
were
to
vote
positive
on
the
superintendent's
recommendation,
which.
H
Is
a
great
way
to
address
that
that
issue,
if
those
schools
being
at
the
end
of
a
peninsula,
then
the
third
and
last
question
I
have
is,
and
I
won't
need
a
second
round
for
for
this.
For
me,
if
Mountain
Road
spontaneously
gets
fixed
whatever
that
word
to
me,
what
would
then
that
mean
for
for
for
folks
whose
boundaries
might
then
be
be
changed?
I'm,
specifically
speaking
about
well.
C
H
I
Ms
Dan,
so
as
always
great
presentation,
I
Echo,
Michelle's
comments,
but
I
have
some
questions.
The
first
one
deals
with
the
scenario
that
scenario
won
for
the
elementary
schools,
particularly
the
transportation
issue.
Well
we
say
we
need
four
additional
buses.
Have
we
mapped
out
and
well?
Let
me
just
ask
a
different
question.
Is
the
four
is
the
area
that
you're
going
to
need
the
buses
in
George
Cornwell
to
get
together
and
help
it
Harmon
to
get
to
Old
Mill?
Is
that
where
we're
going
to
be?
D
So
our
transportation
department
looked
at
each
feeder
pattern,
including
the
Old
Mill
West
cluster,
under
both
scenarios,
one
and
two
on
the
bottom
right
of
the
screen
you
can
see
on
a
high
level
review.
They
indicated
that
four
more
buses
would
be
needed
at
Chesapeake
students
being
rezoned
in
Glen,
Burnie,
Mead
and
North
County
would
reduce
the
number
required
there,
while
at
Old
Mill
High
School.
The
majority
of
those
buses
are
essentially
flipping
right
to
Old,
Mill
West.
So.
G
C
And
this
is
in
scenario
one.
This
is
what
we're
not
recommending
scenario
one
so
this.
So
this
is
based
on
what
the
consultant
put
together
for
scenario
one,
but
yes
it
it
that
was
related
to
the
the.
In
that
scenario,
free
Town,
moving
to
Chesapeake,
Bay,
middle
and
Chesapeake
High
School.
That's
where
those
buses
would
be
needed
at
in
that
cluster.
I
My
children
moved
around
more
times
than
my
daughter
did
three
different
high
schools
so
I
understand
when
students
have
the
option
or
saying
they
want
the
option
when
they're,
ultimately
we're
saying
we
got
to
move
this
around
and
then
our
seniors
get
the
opportunity
to
choose
right
on
whether
they
won't
expect,
but
we
can't
provide
their
them.
The
transportation
Dr
Patel
I
would
ask
that
we
just
look
at
that
scenario.
I
Just
a
little
bit
more
closely,
because
high
school
plus
senior
year
is
a
lot
it's
a
lot
of
stress,
most
of
the
children
will
probably
or
students
will
probably
have
transportation,
but
then
there's
the
ones
that
don't
and
those
are
the
ones
that
I
worry
about.
I
was
overbearing
parent,
so
my
children
didn't
get
cars
and
didn't
get
the
chance
to
drive,
go
figure
right,
but
I
am
concerned
about
the
12th
grade.
Students
entering
in
12th
grade
I
know
most
of
them.
I
B
Good
for
me,
so
let
me
respond
to
that
I
think
is-
is
important
for
the
public
to
hear
a
little
bit
of
our
reasoning
behind
this.
We
have
not
engaged
in
redistricting
to
the
magnitude
of
what
we're
doing
right
now.
So
when
we
did
Crofton,
we
were
able
to
provide
transportation
because
we're
talking
about
one
cluster,
not
multiple
clusters
being
involved
and
so
under
regular
circumstances.
Probably
a
double
route
could
potentially
be
doable,
but
it's
even
if
we
were
fully
staffed.
B
It's
just
not
feasible,
given
the
scope
of
what
we're
doing
right
now
with
the
number
of
students
that
are
being
touched,
so
I
am
open
to
having
conversation,
but
that
that
was
we
did
consider
that
Miss
dent
and
we
just
said
41
000,
kids
potentially
impacted
a
number
of
you
know.
New
schools
coming
online
really
made
that
something
that
I
just
don't
see
how
we
can
get
around
it,
but
we
will
definitely
be
open
to
any
thoughts
and
ideals.
F
E
Thank
you,
madam
president.
Dr
Miguel
Matt
Stacy
when
I
first
read
this
not
too
long
ago.
I
was
absolutely
amazed.
This
is
a
very
complicated
thing.
I
am
so
happy
about
all
the
work
that
you
put
into
this.
The
creativity
that's
involved
with
this
and
we're
going
to
have
a
workshop
on
there.
So
we're
gonna.
E
We
need
to
take
a
deeper
dive
into
this
I
I
will
Express
that
I
I
am
happy
about
the
choice
about
the
Legacy
students
but
I'm
a
little
concerned
about
the
potential
that
maybe
they'd
have
to
provide
their
own
transportation.
But
again
we
have
to
take
a
good
deeper
dive
into
this,
but
this
is
absolutely
marvelous
and
I.
E
J
Yes,
thank
you.
So
when
we
received
this
information
in
advance,
I
was
trying
to
look
at
what
the
superintendent's
recommendation
would
be
and
I
got.
You
know
very
intrigued
and
I
I
didn't
want
to
reach
out
just
yet
because
I
there
were
so
many
charts
and
graphs
and
squiggly
lines.
I
wanted
to
make
sure
I
understood
the
full
presentation
before
sending
my
thanks,
but
I
will
now
so.
Thank
you
very
much
for
all
of
your
hard
work.
J
I
know
a
lot
of
folks
from
the
Chesapeake
cluster
were
very
concerned
to
Mrs
shulheim's
Point
they've
been
trying
for
at
least
the
40
years
that
I've
been
alive
to
fix,
Mountain
Road
and
haven't
succeeded
yet
so
I
highly
highly
suspect.
That
will
continue
in
that
particular
vein
and
I
do
appreciate
the
references
to
what
a
dangerous
road
it
is
and
why
it
was
important
not
to
send
so
many
more
cars
down
the
corridor.
I
do
appreciate
that
you
looked
at
that
one
sort
of
point
that
I
wanted
to
make
about
cbms.
J
D
J
F
D
J
Right
all
right,
just
I,
would
definitely
want
to
be
kept
updated
on
that
I
I
think
that's
a
great
opportunity
to
reallocate
space
and
I'm
just
curious
as
to
how
you
would
do
it,
but
other
than
that.
I'm
very
impressed
with
this
presentation
and
I'm
very,
very
appreciative
on
behalf
of
District
three.
G
I
do
have
a
few
questions.
First,
one
that
jumped
out
at
me
when
you
mentioned
the
blueprint.
Well,
the
blueprint
change
the
determination
of
capacity
since
we'll
need
more
space
for
teachers
in
order
to
meet
the
requirements.
Is
that
has
anyone
thought
that
part
through
yet
and
do
we
need
action
and
the
state
legislature
to
address
that
so.
D
State
rating
capacity
is
pretty
prescriptive
as
far
as
the
formula
that
we
use
to
to
calculate
that
classrooms
versus
non-classrooms
and
then
based
on
the
different
levels
that
would
get
adjusted
so
depending
on
the
programming
that
is
in
an
individual
school
that
could
adjust
the
SRC
or
state
rating
capacity
based
on
what
programs
are
put
in.
There
Pre-K,
for
example,
as
a
lower
State
rated
capacity
for
a
classroom
versus
a
one
through
five
classroom.
So
if
you
added
Pre-K
to
schools-
and
you
took
away
a
regular
classroom,
it
would
essentially
reduce
the
capacity
so.
D
G
H
G
G
Okay
and
then
here's
here's,
the
Big
E
for
me
and
I-
express
concerns
about
two
phases
right,
because
drawing
a
line
between
North
and
South
I
think
ties
our
hands
a
little
bit
in
being
fully
comprehensive
and
fully
balancing
our
facilities.
So
so,
in
order
to
be
fully
comprehensive
and
maximize
the
balancing
of
our
school
facilities,.
G
G
Okay
and
then
I
heard
phase
two
was
not
in
any
way
considered
for
phase.
One
is
phase
two
gonna
get
that
same
treatment.
Are
we
not
going
to
consider
what's
already
happened
in
phase
one
as
we
try
to
meet
the
needs
of
the
southern
part
of
the
county?
In
other
words,
someone
on
that
southern
border
of
the
of
phase
one?
Well,
we
just
moved
them,
so
maybe
we
shouldn't
move
them
now
and
I'm
not
advocating
for
moving
families
twice.
G
I
B
To
have
to
because
you're
doing
a
second
phase,
there
are
boundary
lines
that
have
to
be
touched.
I
mean
there's
no
way
that
you're
going
to
be
able
to
avoid
that
I,
don't
want
to
have
to
move
a
family
twice,
but
I've
been
adamant
from
the
first
day
that
you
all
brought
it
to
my
attention
that
families
are
going
to
have
to
be
touched
twice
out
of
this,
there's
no
way
that
you
can
get
around
it.
G
So
I
get
that
I
just
so,
people
understand
what
I
envisioned
as
a
possible
solution,
but
you
might
be
too
far
down
the
road
for
this
was
to
take
all
the
critical
areas,
the
schools
that
are
busting
at
the
seams
and
move
them
outwards.
Knowing
that
we're
going
to
crowd
some
other
schools
for
a
couple
of
years,
knowing
that
students
are
then
going
to
move
out
who
were
not
already
moved
right,
that
would
have
avoided
moving
families
twice
I
again.
C
I
would
just
say:
Miss
Ellis,
you
know
we
would
use
foreign
policy
and
regulation
as
our
guiding
document
for
phase
two.
Just
like
we
did
phase
one
and
in
phase
two
it
does
not
in
the
or
in
the
policy
or
reg.
It
does
not
mention.
Don't
touch
families
twice
right,
so
we
would
try
to
minimize
it
where
we
could,
but
we
would.
We
would
I
think
the
board
policy
specifically
outlines
the
metrics
to
use
in
determining
boundaries,
and
we
would
stick
to
those
metrics.
G
Okay,
thank
you
and
finally,
I
just
really
want
to
encourage
public
participation.
We're
suddenly,
like
obviously,
there's
been
lots
of
input
and
that's
great
and
that
definitely
informs
a
lot.
I
know
it
informed
the
superintendents
recommended
plan
here,
but
it
is
next
month
late,
August,
that
any
plans
that
will
be
brought
forward
for
consideration
have
to
be
figured
out
by
then.
D
Nice
folks,
as
meeting
type
noted
up
on
the
screen
right
now,
will
be
active.
The
web
tool
and
the
same
format
or
similar
format
to
what
we
had
prior
will
be
available.
We're
going
to
be
utilizing.
The
map
comment
function
so
at
the
bottom
right
of
the
screen,
there'll
be
a
little
red
or
orangish
color
box.
That
says,
comment:
click
on
that
click
on
the
map,
and
you
can
provide
us
geolocated
information
on
any
of
concerns
that
you
have.
G
G
K
G
L
I
too
had
questions
about
the
esrc,
so
it
sounds
like
you've
answered
most
of
them,
but
I
do
have
one
other
question
in
situations
where
some
of
our
schools
provide
unique,
Services
based
on
the
community
that
they
traditionally
serve
so
at
Fort
Meade.
Those
schools
that
are
seated
at
Fort
Meade
tend
to
provide
wrap-around
services
for
some
of
those
veteran
families
that
do
Carry
On
from
the
Middle
School
to
the
high
school
that
are
not
easily
replicated
in
other
high
schools.
L
Number
one
I
presume
that
those
are
were
considerations
in
in
through
it,
but
based
on
that,
how
are
we?
Is
there
a
plan
to
approach
how
we
would
ensure
that
those
services
that
these
students
are
benefiting
from
will
still
be
able
to
be
provided
the
same
as
if
it
was
made
High
School,
providing
them
because
mean
high
school
has
is
where
DOD
gives
us
those
Monies
to
do
it
for
those
school
students,
including
that
include
MacArthur
and
and
all
the
others
that
are
on
the
base
because
of
the
community
that
they
serve,
does.
C
C
Those
transitions
can
be
difficult
and
we
have
to
build
systems
and
structures
in
place
to
ensure
that
those
supports
are
in
place
for
both
the
the
families
themselves,
but
the
schools
receiving
those
students
right
and
I
think
that
will
be
part
of
our
discussions
into
the
fall
as
we
make
final
decisions
and
and
obviously
in
discussions
with
with
the
fort
as
well.
You
know
in
that
partnership
to
talk
about
hey,
we
may
have.
We
may
be
spreading
out
a
few
more
students
that
were
once
concentrated
at
Mead
high
school.
L
We
could
find
a
way
and
I'm
sure
we
will,
and
likewise
too
I
know
that
Central
Elementary,
for
example,
in
Central
Middle,
because
of
their
proximity
to
other
related
surfaces
for
some
of
our
students
at
Central
special
benefit
from
that
campus
collaboration.
So
I
know
when
we
get
to.
Although
when
I
look
at
a
map,
it
doesn't
look,
it
looks
pretty
insulated
in
and
of
itself
when
we
get
to
that
phase,
two
I
would
expect
sounds
like
we
would
be
doing
similar.
L
I
would
just
ask
that
too
often,
we
think
that
we
adequately
communicate
and
and
that
repetition
of
community
education,
also
not
just
the
initial
communication
itself,
because
of
our
time
of
year
and
of
when
we
are
doing
this
and
I
suspect
that
budgetary
implications
would
be
likewise
approved.
Do
we
have
any
preliminary
indication
that
our
funding
sources
are
going
to
be
supportive
of
that,
given
some
of
the
conflicting
priorities
of
budget?
L
L
C
L
We
can't
we
don't
have
a
crystal
ball,
but
it's
helpful
to
know
that,
just
as
a
for
a
matter
of
public
that
you
know
we,
we
know
we
recognize
this
and
we'll
we'll
do
our
best
and
whatever
I
can
do
to
support
those
efforts
by
all
means.
I
am
available
once
again.
Thank
you
guys
very
much
and
I
look
forward
to
listening
to
these
others.
L
Although
it's
not
my
personal
District
over
the
years,
I
have
had
the
opportunity
to
get
to
know
a
lot
of
our
County's
district
communities
and
know
that
although
redistricting
may
be
the
second
worst
thing
that
a
district
can
go
through
that
this
will
afford
new
opportunities
in
funding
for
our
schools
in
the
future
for
renovations
as
well
as
do
we
need
another
school
which
may
not
be
a
too
as
distant
of
a
community
of
a
conversation
as
we
think
it
may
be
now.
Thank.

One
aspect
of
blueprint
is
that's
that's
different
from
transitioning
I
understand,
but
that
automatically
means
that
those
those
monies
will
then
become
available
based
on
the
students
in
the
school,
so
that
that
is
good
to
know
all
right.
I
think
that
concludes
our
questions
for
now.
Obviously
there
will
be
many
more.
Thank
you
all
very,
very
much,
and
we
will
see
you
on
the
26th.
