[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, PP raises a question: do they have to scrap this and start over given the proposal to close SSIMS?

Or can these options still apply I guess for the years 2027-2031?[/quote]

No, they will waste more money with another boundary study for ms.  [/quote]

Taylor said last week they could remove all of the reassignments to SSIMS in these options.[/quote]

Do you think that means they'd also pause all of the transfers OUT of SSIMS in any option? There's a lot of movement in both directions between Sligo MS and SSIMS. It looks like Sligo has a good bit of available capacity, but not enough for all of the students that have it as their current school AND new students from one of options A-D.[/quote]

Yes, that was what I took from their brief conversation during the board meeting, that the boundaries for SSIMS, Sligo, and Eastern would stay as is for the time being, and then there'd be a new boundary study just for those three schools once the capacity has been added to Sligo and Eastern. This all assumes that the conversion of SSIMS to a holding school and those two construction projects get approved.[/quote]

Does that mean Sligo and Eastern work will not occur simultaneously? How could SSIMS hold its currently enrolled students plus students from another school, much less two other schools? [/quote]

The proposal is that Eastern's students would stay in their current building during construction, which is supposed to finish in 2030. Sligo's students would also stay in their current building during the first part of construction, then move to SSIMS as a holding school during the 2030-31 year.[/quote]
