The Seattle School Board has approved a short-term capacity management plan that addresses Seattle Public Schools’ enrollment growth.
The School Board approved the plan with a 7-0 vote last night (Wednesday, Jan. 25, 2012). It was developed following input from the Facilities and Capital Management Advisory Committee. Input was also considered from about 300 attendees at six community meetings and about 550 written comments.
The plan includes boundary adjustments to John Stanford International School (4057 5 Ave NE), B.F. Day Elementary School (3921 Linden Ave N) and McDonald Elementary School (temporarily located at 4400 Interlake Ave N). McDonald serves children from Wallingford, Green Lake and the University District.
The new boundaries will be in effect beginning with the 2012-13 school year. Families in will be able to determine their school boundary with an online address lookup tool starting Tuesday, Jan 31.
