Summary

Staff told the San Francisco Unified School District committee on May 10 that boundary maps, transportation guidance, software and outreach work will be ready for public engagement in August–September and that an enrollment fair and interactive maps are planned for Nov. 13; the committee set an August 18 ad hoc meeting date.

Staff presented a detailed implementation plan for the district’s new student assignment policy and a timetable for completing core pieces before the 2011–12 enrollment cycle.

O'Keefe, presenting a high-level PowerPoint to the committee, said staff would finalize capacity data for demographers and ‘‘by August 9, share that information with the board,’’ launching public engagement in August and September and aiming to have technical systems and materials ready by Nov. 13, the date set for an enrollment fair. ‘‘We will have our enrollment fair on November 13 and launch the new enrollment cycle for the 11, 12 school year,’’ she said.
