7. Contiguous boundaries:
 Attempt to maintain contiguous school boundaries without using
satellite attendance areas.
Respect neighborhoods:
 Avoid dividing easily recognized “neighborhoods” or identified
“developments” or “sub- divisions” unless it is necessary to meet other
guidelines. Whenever possible and practical use major highways,
railroads, rivers, and streams as natural boundaries.
Proximity to schools:
 While it is recognized that all students cannot be assigned to their closest
school, consider students proximity to other schools when creating
school boundaries.

8. Modify feeder systems:
 In order to maximize facility use and establish reasonable numbers of students at each
site, consider the use of 6 middle school feeder systems instead of 5. This would
allow smaller, more instructionally suited middle schools and less dependence on
mobile classrooms.
Stay within enrollment capacities:
 Unless it is likely that a school enrollment will be declining, assign students to the
four high schools in a way that their enrollments are under established capacities.
Consider anticipated growth:
 Enrollment growth patterns should be taken into consideration, where feasible, to
ensure that anticipated growth will not adversely impact one school significantly
more than the others.
Enrollment balance:
 In keeping with the intent of SB612, attempt to balance the percentage of academic
and economic populations at each middle and high school.
