Superintendent summarizes community feedback on Worthy Fade scenarios; majority oppose middle-school option
Summary
Superintendent and district staff presented outreach results and survey feedback about Worthy Fade High School scenarios; staff reported broad input and said the "large majority want to drop the middle school option," while next steps include master-schedule review and UIL guidance.
Superintendent Dr. Anderson and district communications staff presented an expanded outreach summary on Worthy Fade High School scenarios, reporting input gathered from the bond committee, campus groups, PTO leaders, students and staff across December.
Miss Sutterquist summarized the outreach channels and results, saying the district sent the bond-update information to 10,844 staff and parents and opened a feedback survey for grades 6—11; of 5,781 delivered survey invitations the district received 316 completed responses and 22 email comments since the feedback mailbox opened. "The overall consensus from our open ended feedback includes these top 2 trends. Number 1, the large majority wanna drop the middle school option," Sutterquist said. The presentation identified common concerns about rezoning timing, athletic and CTE impacts, shuttling and the need for clear decision timelines.
District staff outlined next steps: an extensive master-schedule review to mitigate crowding, guidance from UIL leadership on athletics and phased openings, continued scenario refinement and a bond-program review to confirm all solutions have been considered. Superintendent Anderson told trustees she has been meeting with teachers, coaches and student groups to collect perspectives and said the board will continue to gather data before making a spring decision.
