The document summarizes a recommendation by the Mansfield ISD School Board to immediately implement boundary changes known as Map A to address overcrowding without using portables. It would affect students in 4th-8th grades by changing which schools they attend. For 8th graders, there are three high school options provided with transportation. The changes would impact around 120 4th graders, 126 5th graders, 129 6th graders, 127 7th graders, and 145 8th graders. An extended deadline is provided for transfer requests.
