q Using the district’s boundary adjustment guiding principles and equity focus, review the springboard proposal to develop a consensus set of recommendations that:

Guiding Principles
q Allow adequate room for required programs and anticipated growth within each school’s capacity and throughout the district q Ensure access to equitable educational opportunities q Ensure safety to and from school q Provide continuity in school assignments for students, families, and schools q Ensure affected/impacted community members are involved in the process and represent ethnic and socioeconomic diversity q Consider the impact to established neighborhoods
Equity Focus
q Process and Outcome
§ Intentionally ask ourselves throughout the work of the task force whether we are making decisions in the best interest of underserved, diverse or marginalized students and families:
- Do we fully understand the impacts of the recommendations?
- How do the recommendations create more equitable outcomes for
- ur students?
- Have we created unintended negative consequences and if so, how can
they be mitigated?
Consensus
q Members collaboratively develop and support recommendations that are in the best long term interest of the students, families and the broader community q Not 100% agreement q Allows for diverse perspectives q Each individual has the opportunity to voice their perspectives, thoughts and values in the development of recommendations that can be supported, even if the individual may have made a different decision on their own
