When will the new boundaries go into effect?<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new boundaries will go into effect at the beginning of the 2025-26 school year (August 2025).<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When does the District anticipate that the boundaries for the 25-26 school year will be determined?<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We anticipate that the boundaries for the 2025-26 school year will be approved by the Board of Education in late January\/early February. Families will receive communications throughout the process, and will be made aware of the final decision after it is approved by the Board.\u00a0<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n

How can I get involved?<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Community Meeting:<\/strong> On December 11th at 6 p.m., a community meeting was held in the auditorium at Middletown High School. Please consider responding to the boundary options survey. <\/a><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will the grade makeup of the schools change?<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes. Each elementary will house grades K-6 starting in the 2025-26 school year. <\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will housing developments and enrollment growth\/decline be considered when creating boundaries?<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes. Both enrollment and housing projections will be considered in this process. Planning boundaries with longevity in mind is important to MCS.<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will the overall boundary of the district be changing? <\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

No. If you currently reside within the greater Middletown City Schools boundary, you will remain within the District. This process will only adjust the elementary boundary lines within the District.\u00a0<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What grades will this process impact?<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This process will only impact grades K-6. The middle and high school will not be impacted. Preschool programs will not be impacted either; anyone residing in the District can register their student in the preschool program (space permitting).<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will any students be permitted to remain at their current school? <\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where students end up for the 2025-26 school year is entirely based on the creation of the new elementary boundaries. Depending on the new boundaries created during this process, some students will remain at their current school; however, if students are assigned to a new building, they will be required to attend school in their newly assigned building.<\/mark><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
