Background
The new replacement Valley Elementary School is opening in Fall 2025 with an expanded capacity of 246 additional seats. It is projected to be at 73% of state rated capacity when the new school opens in 2025.
Brunswick Elementary School opened their new facility in Fall 2023-24. The school is currently over capacity at 110% of its state rated capacity. It is projected to continue to be over capacity for the next ten years.
Elementary schools are the focus of this effort, and no middle or high school adjustments will be recommended.
Both schools are within the Brunswick Middle/High feeder pattern.
The Board of Education is expected to approve a plan in February 2025, and the boundary changes will be implemented in Fall 2025 (2025-26 school year).
Project Objectives
The primary objective of this project is to balance school utilization between Valley and Brunswick Elementary Schools.
