Mayor says Montgomery must build a shared identity across five school districts
Summary
The mayor said one of the village's challenges is its service by five different school districts and lack of a single high school, and that village efforts will focus on promoting downtown amenities and shared community identity.
The mayor said a longstanding challenge for Montgomery is that residents are served by five different school districts, which leaves the village without a single high school around which to rally. He argued that building awareness of downtown amenities and events is part of a broader effort to forge a shared identity.
He described plans to promote downtown attractions on both the East and West sides of town and to emphasize community events and block parties that help knit neighborhoods together. No specific education policy or interdistrict strategy was announced during the remarks.
