Mayor says Montgomery must build identity despite spanning five school districts
Summary
The mayor said a major community challenge is that Montgomery sits within five different school districts and lacks a single high school for the village to rally around; the village plans to promote downtown and local amenities to strengthen shared identity.
The mayor said one of Montgomery’s persistent challenges is identity: the village is part of five different school districts, which leaves it without a single high school around which residents can rally. "One of our challenges as a community is and always has been an identity," the mayor said.
To address that, the speaker said the village will work to highlight downtown amenities and neighborhood assets on both the East and West sides of town to foster a stronger sense of community. No specific inter‑district initiatives or education-related policy steps were described in the transcript.
