Getting ready to live report on the Redistricting advisory committee meeting about to begin at 6 #rdac0207 Image
Meeting delayed starting but now underway. Supt Lucas Giguere opens and starts with agenda for tonight #rdac0207 Image
SchCom member, subcommittee chair Al Charles steps in to add view on the objectives, what's in scope and what's out of scope #rdac0207 ImageImage
Out of scope is the building master plan, that will be part of the town planning on the "master plan" effort just starting (volunteers being looked for to help with that 12-18 month effort) #rdac0207
Lily Rivera, town & schools communications specialist, talks to the slide she developed on the time line #rdac0207 ImageImage
The storymap that summarizes the information and is interactive to allow for further digging into details #rdac0207 storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/9db1fa…
"How do we do what is best for the whole while impacting the least?"
#rdac0207
Scrolling through the storymap shows the summary, details on navigation, and the current recommendations #rdac0207 Image
The room view, and the options as presented this far
#rdac0207 ImageImage
Option 1 details for elementary and for middle school #rdac0207 ImageImage
Option 2 details from the storymap #rdac0207 ImageImageImage
One screenshot I can capture well right now shows the reconfigured utilization for the schools for that option. #rdac0207 another view who moves vs who doesn't is shown here for option 2 Image
Should have typed "can't" be captured in the prior tweet #rdac0207
All the photos I am capturing from the slides and storymap tonight are also in one album for ease of viewing #rdac0207 photos.app.goo.gl/v5bVgM8RrhD2be…
Discussion around the numbers on this slide, capacity does it or doesn't it include 5th graders. Being looked at! Stay tuned... If you find other potential numbers that don't seem to work, feel free to raise the question #rdac0207 Image
Full analysis will be done on the most likely options, there is not enough time/resources to do the full analysis on all the 'tiny' variations that could be considered #rdac0207
The exercise leading to however many options seems to be a 'short term' buy time solution as the master facility bit would be done by the Town, if they chose to build a new school, then there is another aspect of planning required for long term #rdac0207
The larger group is not doing a dive into the scenario discussion at each table, #rdac0207 Image
Catching up to share the option 3 slides (from the storymap) #rdac0207 (note: go the storymap for the last table on utilization rates) ImageImageImage
Ouch, caught a typo in that the larger group is NOW going into discussion at each table (oops!) #rdac0207
Tables just received the 2 minute warning to wrap up table discussion #rdac0207
Next steps slide #rdac0207 Image
Table recaps in process; survey also going to group for feedback on the scenarios. #rdac0207 the community forums Mar 7 & 13 are the same details, one in person, one virtual; survey to the community also going after those sessions to gather feedback
Session wrapping up; so that is all for tonight, catch you next time! #rdac0207
