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.
