This has not been finalized as we are still in review and soliciting feedback from our gifted families. We will continue to solicit feedback through the remainder of this year, and will develop the program by January of 2020 in time for Open Enrollments and parent meetings.

Yes. We have had massive expansion in this region over the past decade which we have constructed new schools and created boundary changes for the new schools. Although our data shows that most resident students attend the school within the boundary, we  do provide families choice to attend the same school or any school of their choice via Open Enrollment with priority status.

We typically lose students to other sites through the same open enrollment process that we gain them. It is almost 1:1 at some sites. We watch the number of open enrollments at our larger sites and make it a priority to keep families together when we can. (Based on Capacity to provide the services or class.) Sites try to keep healthy cohorts of Kindergarten classrooms so that they do not have to reduce teachers over time and sustain the natural enrollment  attrition that occurs.

No we always work with families on a transition plan and anticipate doing the same. We will have a survey for gifted parents as we have many parents whose children qualify for gifted services but do not go to a satellite site. They may want the option of the Gifted Academy in 2020 - 2021 as well as other  families in the Gifted Satellite programs. We will provide that choice for our families.  

No but we will work with families so that children may attend their current site or other site of their choice that provides that programming.

This will be decided by the Governing Board as they alone have the right to the naming of schools.  However,  we will have student an parent involvement in key aspects of the school culture at the new school. 

Yes we provide families with choice.  By 2020 - 2021, new families to the newly formed boundary will attend their boundary school unless on open enrollment to a CUSD school.

That is correct we will continue to provide dual enrollment to the Freeman Farms neighborhood at CTA Freedom or the option and recommendation our Board adopts be it Weinberg or Elementary 31 which both are in or considered for the Weinberg Boundary.

Thank you for your input. Gilbert Public Schools and Chandler Unified School Districts are two separate entities with Governing Boards that approve Boundary recommendations. Any changes of school attendance between Districts would be through the Open Enrollment process as Chandler Unified School District does not have authority to reboundary within another District.

Thank you for your input. We are checking to see the conditions of how Weinberg was built and the land acquisition. We will know more in the next 30 days.
