MAGNET CRITERIAChanges that will impact criteria:

• Smarter Balanced Assessments in lieu of CRTs

• Adoption of CCSD Regulation 5122 (semester grades K‐5)

• Standards‐based and regular report cards

• Change in timelines to accommodate earlier application window

• Examining criteria to ensure that one component does not disqualify a student

• Proposed changes to transportation will not have any impact on student admission to magnet programs

On September 23, 2014, a meeting was held with all magnet principals to develop recommendations for revisions in light of the outlined changes.

TRANSPORTATIONPOSSIBLE CONCEPTS ADDRESSED IN AUGUST 2014

Hub and Spoke model to increase efficiency

Later bell times for some schools to increase route efficiency

Examine holistic impact of plan to overall District transportation

Provide transportation to all students to all schools Districtwide

Identify and phase in transportation boundaries by program (e.g. IB, STEM, Performing Arts)

Identify and implement transportation boundaries for each school

Students currently attending magnet programs will continue to receive transportation until they complete their time at their school.

Reference Item 7.09

TRANSPORTATION—DRAFT PROPOSALCURRENT STRUCTURE AND HISTORY

• Since the advent of magnet programs in CCSD, we have bussed students from all over the valley, including Boulder City, to attend programs.

• With the establishment of CTAs, CCSD moved to transportation zones with the CTA Pilot Model.

• CTA transportation zones were established based upon the availability of several similar or “like” programs offered at each of the CTAs.

Reference Item 7.09

With the expansion of magnet programs across the valley, a proposal was developed to create a pilot phase transportation zone by:

– Providing similar programs of study– Density of students applying to magnet programs– Density of students living within particular areas

• Collecting feedback from schools regarding proposal
