***CORRECTION***
Information Meetings Scheduled to Update Student Assignment Proposal
August 30, 2011 - Please disregard the previous press release about the upcoming community student assignment meetings. The previous information was incomplete.
Members of the Wake County Public School System's Student Assignment Task Force will lead a series of community information meetings during the next three weeks to provide the community an update on the development of a staff student assignment proposal and to answer questions from the public.
The most significant updates to the assignment proposal are the addition of proposed feeder patterns and the modification of choice options for students whose most proximate school is a magnet school. These choice options will include a broadened list of regional schools, including two high performing schools, an additional magnet school, and an underutilized school. You can find the proposed feeder patterns on the "Next Steps, Q&A" page at assignment.wcpss.net.
We will gather community feedback at these meetings. Below is a complete list of the community information meetings, which will run from 6:30 to 8 p.m. on the following dates.
- Wednesday, August 31 at Middle Creek High
- Thursday, September 1 at Wakefield High
- Wednesday, September 7 at Apex High
- Thursday, September 8 at Southeast Raleigh High
- Tuesday, September 13 at Broughton High
- Thursday, September 15 at East Wake High
September 1 update: Please note that Student Assignment Task Force members will be giving the same presentation at each meeting. Feel free to attend whichever meeting is most convenient to you.
