Liverpool Central School District officials have cancelled a meeting to advise district residents on its redistricting proposal, pending possible tweaks to the plan.

The meeting, which was scheduled to have taken place Thursday, Jan. 22, will be rescheduled, but a date has not yet been set.

The cancellation comes after the district reviewed demographic data for the 2014 calendar year. According to Board of Education President Patricia DeBona-Rosier, the board will examine Scenario No. 12 as presented by the Redistricting Committee in the spring of 2013, which had been selected as the proposal the district planned to adopt, to determine if it is still the most cost-effective option and that it equitably distributes students throughout the district.

“We are looking at our current student population and checking to make sure that the plan that was approved will still address our needs as outlined in the original initiative,” Rosier said in an email. “I am expecting that some tweaks will need to be made to locations where the student population has either increased or decreased significantly. This sort of adjustment is necessary prior to implementing the plan in fall 2015.”

Rosier noted that the first phase of the redistricting plan was already implemented this past fall when the three middle schools moved to the “feeder” system.

“[The middle schools] were redistricted to support a ‘feeder’ school structure in the fall of 2014,” Rosier said. “Each middle school has three elementary buildings feed into it: Nate Perry Elementary, Donlin Drive Elementary and Chestnut Hill Elementary go to Chestnut Hill Middle School; Liverpool Elementary, Elmcrest Elementary and Long Branch Elementary students attend Liverpool Middle School and the last three elementary schools, Willow Field Elementary, Soule Road Elementary and Morgan Road Elementary, attend Soule Road Middle School.”

There are no plans to push implementation of the full plan any further.

The district will notify residents when the meeting is rescheduled.
