MCBOE to Hold 2014-2015 Elementary Zones Hearing on Tuesday, Jan. 7
The Monroe County Board of Education is taking input regarding the 2014-2015 elementary zones at a public hearing scheduled for January 7 at the Central Office Auditorium at 7 p.m. 

Please travel to  Monroe County Schools 2014-2015 Proposed Elementary School Zones Website to review the two proposals.  Full size maps are on site at Central Office at 25 Brooklyn Avenue for your review. 

Monroe County Board of Education will hold an Elementary Zoning for 2014-2015 Hearing on Tuesday, January 7, 2014 at 7 p.m. in the Central Office Auditorium. The agenda for the meeting as well as guidance for those wishing to address the board are found here.  The Board of Education welcomes input as time allows.  Speakers wishing to address the Board of Education must register prior to the meeting with the understanding that statements are limited to three minutes.  The Board Chair will call on speakers, and all are asked to address the Board of Education with diplomacy and civility.  Profanity, defamatory, and rude remarks will not be allowed. 

Reasons for re-zoning the elementary attendance zones:

  • To increase the student population at KBSES and SEHES better utilizing all elementary schools.
  • To maintain or enhance student diversification at each school mirroring system demographics.
  • To maximize county-wide current and anticipated growth patterns.
  • To create more efficient elementary zones for transportation.
  • To develop a plan which extends the time before re-zoning would need to be revisited.
