The K-5 Instructional Organization Advisory Committee issued its final report at the Board of Education meeting March 28, 2005. The group also held a public hearing on March 7.

Here is the final report. You can read it here and download it in Word here.

The purpose of the K-5 Instructional Organization Advisory Committee is to make recommendations to the Board of Education as to whether the school district should reorganize its current structure for instruction in grades K-5.

The primary consideration of the committee is to determine if a more efficient, effective, and consistent delivery of program instruction can be found. This should include a study regarding the balancing of class sizes in order to provide equity.

The group began meeting in June.

Here is information from the committee as well as meeting minutes:
