BELOW: Danielle Bethell, Bob Shackelford and Dave Walery deliver a $1,000 check for the camp to Lt. Andrew Copeland and Chief John Teague of KPD. Chamber bolsters BLAST Camp The Keizer Police Depart- ment BLAST Camp was the recipient of a $1,000 donation from the Keizer Chamber of Commerce at the Keizer City Council meeting Monday, Aug. 6. The Chamber raised money for the camp through several efforts during Keizer- FEST in May. The free camp, which took place in July, fos- ters stronger ties between lo- cal police and youth who might otherwise have negative impressions of police offi cers. After the successful passage of the $619.7 million bond measure, Salem-Keizer Pub- lic Schools (SKPS) has begun planning for construction – school boundary changes may follow. In 2019, Gubser Elemen- tary, Waldo Middle, Judson Middle, McNary High and North High will begin re- ceiving signifi cant capital con- struction. In order to utilize increased capacity and ensure the safe progression of con- struction, the Salem-Keizer Board of Directors reviewed the boundary change process at its July 24 meeting. The boundary change process is being facilitated by FLO Analytics, a consult- ing fi rm with expertise in data analysis and experience in assisting school districts with boundary changes. FLO Analytics utilizes research and population forecasting from Portland State University to guide enrollment projections. The boundary change process will take about eight months and will include pub- lic input sessions to collect par- ent and community feedback. The process will also include a Boundary Review Task Force that will vet an initial staff rec- ommendation and prepare a report and recommendation to the School Board. Boundary adjustments may be needed across every high school feeder system; however, comparatively small changes are predicted within the Mc- McNary Estates annual garage sale Saturday Nary feeder system. For ex- ample, changes to balance en- rollments in some elementary and/or middle schools within the McNary progression may be needed, but changes to the high school boundaries are not expected. The boundary adjustments also incorporate the construc- tion of special education spac- es at each of the district’s six traditional high schools. SKPS will host a series of community meetings between September and December to gather feedback on the pro- posed boundary adjustments. The Board is expected to take action on boundary adjust- ments in February 2019 for implementation in the fall of 2019.
