Beaverton Parents Get Ready For Final Boundary Proposal

"I ask that you put the 52 Raleigh Hills K-8 students you have moved to Southridge HS back at Beaverton HS and keep our tight-knit community together."

"I am rather perplexed by the changes to the proposed high school boundaries made between the February 12 and March 3 maps."

"This is definitely becoming very frustrating."

Those are just three of the scores of messages that have poured into the committee drawing the new boundaries for the Beaverton School District.

They have come by email, they have come by snail mail. They have been spoken at public hearings and written on comment cards.

The changes are necessary because the population of Beaverton has been growing faster than expected. Two of the high schools are expected to be near 100 percent capacity in the next few years.

As a result, the district is building a new high school south of Cooper Mountain and the boundaries are changing.

If you want to read the comments, the district has posted them here.

The next - and supposedly final, meeting will be Thursday, March 17 at 6PM at the Beaverton School District Administrative Office at 16550 SW Merlo Road.
