School Redistricting, Start Times, and Transportation Advisory Committee
Purpose:
The School Redistricting, Start Times, and Transportation Advisory Committee shall serve in an advisory capacity only, whose purpose shall be to assist, advise and make recommendations to the School Committee regarding the evaluation of school attendance boundaries. Its main purpose is to ensure that student populations are distributed across schools in a balanced and equitable way, often in response to changes like population growth, new school construction, school closures, or shifting demographics.
During this process the advisory committee may also consider recommendations on the efficiency of transportation routes as well as research best practices for school start times.
