Question of the Week: Do Fifth-Graders Belong in Middle School?

Dublin Patch has been covering the issue of a possible grade change at three Dublin schools in the east.

A Boundary Committee is focusing on changing grade level configurations at Green Elementary, Fallon Middle School and Kolb Elementary, which will open for the 2011 – 2012 school year.

The committee's recommendation was as follows: Green, which is at capacity, and Kolb should become K-4 schools and Fallon would be converted from a K-8 school to a 5-8 school. 

The parent community meeting regarding the Green/Fallon/Kolb Boundary Committee recommendation will be held at 6:30 p.m. Monday, Sept. 20, at Green Elementary School.
