Call for Comment: Any Iowa City School District Questions You Want Answered This Week?
The main focus will be on population triggers for the third comprehensive high school and more redistricting talks this week. What questions would you like answers to related to these or other topics?
There are going to be a lot of Iowa City School District discussions going on this week, and I wanted to know what you'd like to me look into.
First, it has been reported that new student projections done for the district by the University of Iowa suggests that the district has reached its previously agreed upon enrollment numbers needed to prompt the building of a third high school, likely in the Corridor/North Liberty area. As you can see from the comments to that article, that has prompted a debate over the validity of the numbers, and if the district really has reached the enrollment numbers as stated.
That report is scheduled to be presented at tomorrow night's school board meeting.
