Summary :
|
|
Every four (4) years, school districts having a director district plan of representation must determine the population in each of the director districts and, if each director district does not contain substantially the same number of persons as each of the other director districts, the school board has a duty to revise the districts to comply with the specifications in accordance with C.R.S. 22-31-110. In accordance with the statute, reapportioned districts shall be contiguous, compact, and as nearly equal in population as possible, the number of director districts should not be changed, and shall be completed no later than December 31st, 2024.
The last reapportionment of director districts was made in 2020. Accordingly, the district’s consultant, Western Demographics Inc. (WDI), has evaluated director district populations and determined reapportionment is necessary.
At the November 19, 2024 Board of Education meeting, WDI presented current district populations and reapportionment scenarios for the Board’s review and consideration. A preference for Scenario 3 was indicated by Board members and thus is submitted in the attached memo as staff’s final recommendation for Board approval. At the request of the Board, a listing of Douglas County School District schools by the recommended director district the facility is located in, along with an accompanying map, is included with the memo.
This Board of Education meeting is the second and final reading of the recommended scenario. |
