D102 buildings are aging and overcrowded with many being more than 100 years old.
Since September, the community-led Renew D102 Facilitating Team has been hard at work, carefully reviewing data and gathering input to address these challenges and shape a long-term plan for the future of our schools.
With feedback from the community, the district’s strategic goals, an in-depth look at our school facilities, and a review of educational best practices, they developed three options to address our needs. These options were shared during a community workshop on October 29, where residents provided valuable feedback. That feedback helped refine the team’s preferred option, which was then shared through a community-wide survey and at open houses across our schools.
Now, after incorporating input from hundreds of district residents, the final plan is ready to be presented to the Board of Education on December 19.
