Pierre School Board Hears Proposal To Shift Elementary School Boundaries

PIERRE — The Pierre School Board could take action in the next few months to move some boundaries that make up elementary school districts within the Pierre School District. Superintendent Dr Kelly Glodt first presented the notion of a boundary switch at the Board’s February meeting. He says the balance of students per school is good but could be better…

The District uses open enrollments to try and spread the student balance around, but Glodt doesn’t think open enrollments can get the balance where they’d like it…

Business Manager Darla Mayer says the proposed change is in a small area east of Grey Goose…

The presentation was informational for the Pierre School Board. Action on the possible boundary change could come at the District’s April or May meeting.
