School Board to vote on school boundaries today

The Seattle School Board is voting on the new school boundaries at their meeting this afternoon.

Before the final vote, the Board will heard public comment on the assignment plan from 13 community members, including one Franklin High School student. The meeting agenda is here (.pdf). View the recommended motion from the Seattle Public School Staff here (.pdf), and the proposed amendments to the plan, which will also be voted, here (.pdf). The School Board meeting starts at 6 p.m. in the auditorium of the John Stanford Center, located at 2445 3rd Avenue South.

As part of the Student Assignment Plan approved back in June, the district was given the green light to redraw boundaries around each school based on addresses rather than preference. Under the proposed plan, the Ballard High School cutoff will be NW 85th, sending students north of there to Ingraham High School. Viewlands Elementary at 10525 3rd Ave. NW. would also be reopened under the plan. You can look up your proposed school using your address here.
