Summary

Wayzata Public Schools presented a multi-phased attendance-area adjustment process including Design and Input teams, online engagement, and proposed timelines; consultants reported substantial public input counts and flagged tradeoffs such as transportation and capacity.

Wayzata Public Schools presented an Attendance-Area Adjustment Process that uses a Decision Making Framework, a Guiding Change Framework, and a Whole System View to guide mapping options, roles, sequencing and timing for potential boundary adjustments.

The presentation described a Design Team of roughly 30 staff that has completed seven meetings and an Input Team of about 80 parents and staff. Presenters said the district will use TeamWorks analytics and Strategic Enrollment Projection tools, online meeting packets, and (2–4) Choice Maker sessions to solicit wider family and staff engagement. Slides list the concepts under consideration (1A–4C) across elementary and middle-school pathways and identify planning complexities—targeting about 90% functional capacity, demographic balance toward district averages, preservation of neighborhood schools, and transportation impacts. The slides list specific next steps and dates: Design Team review on Nov. 4; TW staff to prepare refined options; Input Team meeting on Nov. 13; Board update on Nov. 25; additional Board work sessions and a future Board action (dates TBD).

The slides also report raw counts of online responses by concept (ES 3A-1: 334; ES 3A-2: 228; ES 3B: 404; MS 3C-1: 251; MS 3C-2: 211). The presentation includes consultant contact information for Dr. Ray Queener of TeamWorks.
