Each school in Area I I I la shown as part of a cluster on
the map.
a. Beaumont |6M|, Alameda |K-5|, Sabin |R-5 and
Hally wand |K 5 |.
In the Beaumont duster Hollywood serves as a swing
school with students moving both north and south. It is the
recommendation of the committee that it consider becoming
a K 5. year round school, thus providing an option for
parents in both the Fernwood and Beaumont clusters as
well as enabling it to serve 25% more younsters. Sabin
would continue to realize its goals as a community school in
addition to the direction it might take as a primary renter.
Alameda would continue its exploration of program
development, thus offering parents and students in the
duster educational choice.
b. F era wood |6-d|, Irviagtoa |K-5|, M o relh arst |K -5)
aad Normaadale IK-5|.
In the Fernwnod rluater. Irvington has developed an
early childhood focus which draws students from other
areas Normandale would be an excellent site to develop a
primary
alternative
program,
possibly year
round,
substantially different from the schools which surround it.
l<aurelhurst, with its recent renovations and some open
spare, has the opportunity of featuring a program that
Irvington and Normandale lack the facilities to provide.
c. M t. Tabor |6-N|, Gleoeoe |K-5|, Sunnyside |K-5|,
Buckman Irloael, and a portion of Richmond I clone |.
Mt. Tabor and Sunnyside are scheduled for building
modifications, using monies allocated several years ago,
which will enhance each of these structures and create
opportunities for varied programs Fxlwards will serve the
Mt. Tabor, Hosford and Creston clusters offering a year
round school option to interested families.
d. Hosford |6-M|. Abernathy |K-5|. Grout |K-5|, Edwards
|K 5|, aad a portion of Boise IK S) upper grade students.
Hosford was selected as the upper grade center for that
cluster because of its location and additional space. Grout
presents an alternative if. in planning with the deaf center,
Hosford seems unworkable.
Abernathy has an effective
non graded model of primary education on which to build.
Grout, which has been very full until now, will have more
flexibility in the use of its building under the reorganization
plan.
Boise has concentrated program efforts on the
attainment by all students of basic skills.
e. Creston |6-N|, Atkinson |K-5| and a portion of
Richmond |close|.
Creston was chosen to be the upper grade center because
of the grounds, the size and potential life of the building,
and its flexibility for a variety of programs. Younson
families over time will make the transition to Binnsmead.
Both Kellogg and Atkinaon will be for primary units within
their buildings.
f. Sellwood |5-N|, IJewellyn IK-41, Ih u iw a y IK-41.
Brooklyn Irlooel aad a portion of Boise |K -5| upper grade
students.
Brooklyn upper graders are already at Sellwood;
program development is well under way and the Llewellyn
community will ioin with Sellwood in the coming year to
further develop that site as an upper grade center and
Llewellyn as a primary school. The inclusion of Boise and
Duniway students will increase the opportunities at
Sellwood for a rich and diverse program.
g. lame l«-«l. Arleta |K 5| and Woodstock
The development of a comprehensive program for Lane
as an upper grade center will enable students in those
grades now at Woodstock to take advantage of the la n e
center.
Students from A rietta and Lewis can join to
expand the program as Lane youngsters in K 5 adopt those
schools as their primary centers.
b. Flint.
Eliot serves the entire city as an Early Childhood
Education Center.
Eliot's older students now attend
Buckman. At the time Buckman closes Eliot students will
move to Sunnyside.
