●      The purpose of this committee is to develop, analyze, evaluate all possible options for school structure and to make recommendations to the School Board and community on the best options for our school system to provide maximum support for all K-12 students.

●      Identify ways to provide the best education possible for our students in an economical, cost-conscious way. 

●      Options must align our programs and resources with our district’s mission, vision and strategic plan goals. 

●      Factors to be considered in reviewing how our  school programming is currently structured and whether it’s sustainable: 

o   Declining student population

o   Declining year-round population

o   High per student costs

o   Reduced student learning options at DISHS

o   Reduced student learning results (testing etc.)

o   The substantial investment needed to revamp the high school building as well as resources needed to appropriated maintain DISES

●      The committee is to create a report that contains at least 2 and no more than 3 options which clearly outline/describe viable school structures, with associated pros and cons and costs for each included for community review. The report will contain a summary of all research completed by the committee and associated findings.

●      Deadline for submission of report to School Board:  December 4, 2018
