D.C. school boundary revisions will not be ready before the fall, officials say


By: Emma Brown

D.C. Schools Chancellor Kaya Henderson's politically sensitive effort to overhaul school boundaries is moving more slowly than anticipated and will not be finalized in June as planned, officials said Monday.

Work on the revisions will continue throughout the summer and into the fall, according to spokeswoman Melissa Salmanowitz. Despite the delay, the changes are still expected to take effect for the 2014-15 school year.
