• Committee members should have received an invite to the Wiki group page.
• Page is merely a method to communicate between meetings and to answer/discuss issues related to the redistricting between meetings
• Talk with Robin Allen after the meeting if you did not get an invite, to make sure she has your correct contact information.
• Committee can always send emails or call Cropper GIS and/or BCPS with questions or thoughts.

1. Baltimore County Public Schools is building a new elementary school on the Mays Chapel site.
a) Opening in Fall 2014b) 700-student capacity
2. Schools throughout the region are overcrowded, and redistricting is necessary to balance building utilization and populate the new school.
3. BCPS has organized a committee-based process to work through redistricting options and plans.
a) Work will continue through Winter 2014

Efficient use of available space (i.e. Balance Building Utilization)
Long-range enrollment and capacity needs (i.e. be mindful of future potential population in addition to existing students)
Use natural boundaries, such as railroads, creeks, major highways, election districts, existing school boundaries, and location of feeder schools.

Cost containment (i.e. Efficiencies such as transportation and facility use)
Elimination of existing satellite zones (areas districted to a school that are outside of its boundary)
Minimize the number of times any one student is reassigned
Feeder pattern continuity
Phasing in boundary changes by grade levels for high schools
Maintaining diversity among all involved schools

Review of DRAFT Options
![Page 19: Central Area Redistricting Study -Committee Meeting 2- October 30, 2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062411/568168ba550346895ddfa712/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Remember that everything is considered DRAFT!
• Nothing is written in stone• Existing DRAFT Options are subject to change• New options can/will be created
• Focus isn’t on picking the best solution YET, but to openly explore the various options to present to the public for feedback.
![Page 20: Central Area Redistricting Study -Committee Meeting 2- October 30, 2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062411/568168ba550346895ddfa712/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
3 DRAFT Options are presented to you this evening• Committee has 8.5x11 maps, as well as plots of
maps for review tonight• Options maps are also now on the interactive
webmap (www.croppermap.com/bcpsredistricting)• Copies of handouts, including small and large
format maps will be posted on the Mays Chapel webpage on the BCPS website (http://www.bcps.org/construction/mayschapel/)
![Page 21: Central Area Redistricting Study -Committee Meeting 2- October 30, 2013](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062411/568168ba550346895ddfa712/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
When analyzing redistricting options, it is best to look at the information in two different ways.• Study the geography i.e. shape of the current
and option boundary lines.• Look at where the lines shift away from current
vs. the option.• Look at road networks and envision how school
buses and parents would travel to the school
• Study the tables and enrollment / utilization estimate• Review the balance of enrollment, and identify
any imbalances that may exist.• Understand why there are any imbalances in the
enrollment / utilization, or examine possible ways to improve the balance.

*Hampton option counts remove 99 students attending Cromwell but living inside Hampton Boundary. Cromwell Magnet is located in the Hampton boundary, but most students who attend the magnet live outside of the study area (except for Hampton).
**Sparks is not affected in redistricting in current options because there is planned construction to address their overcrowding

15 minutes• Groups have different colored
markers, and are encouraged to write, circle, highlight any area on the map they feel needs to be addressed.
• After 15 minutes, the group will swap options and review the next one.
• After each group reviews all 3 options, there will be a discussion around findings / observations
