File Attachment:
Summary:	• Establish a new School Closure Committee to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of MDUSD schools and facilities to develop a long-term (3-year minimum), comprehensive plan to identify and address potential school/facilities closures and openings. • Here are just some of the key components to be researched, evaluated, and addressed in the plan: 1. An analysis of continuing growth and/or declining enrollment trends • The School Closure Committee’s report still needs in-depth analysis and reflection. 2. Redrawing attendance boundaries to establish balanced feeder patterns 3. Transportation issues (e.g., availability) 4. Traffic and safety issues 5. Relocation or redistribution of special education/after school/support programs at schools to be closed 6. Transition and support plan for students at schools to be closed 7. Staffing impact and needs 8. Redistribution of revenue/funding sources at the closing schools 9. Use of Measure C facilities monies 10. Maintenance and security of closed facilities and/or possible use of closed facilities 11. Explicit accounting of actual money saved from school closures, not just a best guess. In addition, use the CDE's "Closing a School Best Practices Guide" as a resource.
