Asset Management Superintendent's Advisory Committee

On May 28, 2025, the Board of Trustees heard a presentation on the Superintendent’s recommendation for school consolidations. This recommendation was based on input from the Superintendent’s Advisory Committee as well as public feedback during several Town Hall and other public meetings.

At the conclusion of the presentation and public comment, the Board was asked to adopt Resolution 24-032 regarding School Closures, Academic Achievement, Specialized Programs, and Nestor Language Academy Improvements.

Following discussion, the Board amended the Resolution to include additional and clarifying language. Resolution 24-032 was unanimously adopted as amended.

As a result, the following is the timeline for our asset management/school consolidation project:

• Close Central School for the start of the 2026-27 school year.
• Following assessment and evaluation, close School #2 for the start of the 2028-29 school year.
• Following assessment and evaluation, close School #3 for the start of the 2030-31 school year.
• Postpone the focus on new specialized magnet programs for the next three years and continue to invest in existing programs while continuing to focus on standards-based instruction under the direction of the Assistant Superintendent of Educational Leadership.
• Create a process that includes school site input into the creation of a specialized program intended to attract and retain students and improve academic achievement to start in the 2028-29 school year.
• Nestor Language Academy Improvements:
  • Use bond and school site funds to create a campus classroom maintenance, replacement, and improvement plan.
  • Establish clearly written guidelines for enrollment that align with State recommendations to ensure a safe campus.

Thank you to the members of the Superintendent’s Advisory Committee for their work and to all the staff, parents, students, and community members that provided invaluable comments and feedback.
