Community Information Night

Parents of elementary students are invited to an informational meeting on March 7 at 7 p.m. at West Geauga High School, lecture room 124.

An informational meeting for district residents will be held March 9 at 7 p.m. in the middle school cafeteria.

The event includes discussions related to the topic of grade level elementary buildings as a possible alternative to two K-5 buildings. The West Geauga Board of Education and administration are preparing to involve staff, parents and residents in those discussions now that the initial practicability issues related to space and transportation have been examined.

The board has not made a decision about building reconfiguration at this point. It is, however, studying the possibility.

Several educationally compelling reasons support the decision to explore reconfiguration of the elementary schools. If reconfiguration occurs, it will most likely take the form of one k-2 building and one 3-5 building, with the middle school and high school retaining their current grade configurations.
