WFISD presents two elementary attendance‑zone options after survey; trustees to vote Monday
Miss Thomas presented district updates and summarized results from an Oct. 14–Nov. 6 online survey on proposed elementary attendance‑zone changes: 221 respondents participated, 78% were parents, 14% staff and 8% other community members. Staff said most respondents said they understood the proposed changes, though some wanted more detailed maps; commentary focused on concerns about equity, class size distribution and the instability that frequent zone changes can create for students.

Staff offered two options for trustees to consider. Option 1 mirrors the map previously presented and affects Jefferson, Dollar, West and Crockett. Option 2 would leave Crockett unchanged for next year and would instead affect Jefferson, Fowler and West; under Option 2, West's projected enrollment would be about 278 and Crockett would avoid losing roughly 100 students. Staff noted potential busing adjustments would be required in either option but said route adjustments — not more buses — were expected. Trustees asked for street‑level maps to be emailed; staff committed to sharing the two options and supporting documents and said the board could vote on the changes at Monday's board meeting.

Trustees discussed possible future campus uses, including the potential to consolidate or repurpose buildings if enrollments shift; staff cautioned that operating a campus at very low enrollment is inefficient and said there is flexibility to move programs as needed. The presentation concluded with reminders about upcoming town halls and the district’s Veterans Day schedule.
