Madrona Decisions/Vigilant Parents

There are many decisions will have to be made before the opening of the Madrona School next year.

Here is a picture of the Madrona School Site via Mayor Bill Gentes’ blog. Click on the picture for a larger view.

Madrona School

I have rearranged the snippets to make it easier to discuss.

          

And though officials say it will solve, at least for now, the district’s space problems, they have important issues to take care of before Madrona opens.

Who goes where?

Before the school opens, the district board will have to make the difficult decision of which students will go there.

Obviously, the students in the new homes nearby will attend. But because Madrona will be the only district school serving students in kindergarten through eighth grade, the boundaries of existing schools will have to be redrawn.

“That’s going to be a huge issue in the district,”

    Why did they decide to build a school that is k-8? It seems as though it will be at odds with the rest of the district.

    This was before the time I started researching the district. What I do know is this plan was under the direction of Dr. Kurt Anderson. He is no longer the Superintendent. He was pretty much forced out after 4 failed referendum attempts.
