  2. Option 1: CLOSE TIFFINRedistributing of Tiffin-Allen/Mt.L/Worthington PK-5

  3. Option 1– Pros • Allows all elementary students to remain in a PK-5 Building • Provides adequate staffing for clean buildings/services to all students • Student/Staff ratio's are well within compliance of negotiated agreement • Allows the district to continue to implement the existing daily schedule that allows for collaborative planning and intervention • Maintains the district preschools in their existing buildings • Redistributes the least amount of students to new buildings-296 • Fair distribution of reductions at the elementary and secondary level

  4. Option 1- Cons • Reduces the number of electives available to CHS students • Requires hiring 3 bus drivers • Some students will be moved from their neighborhood school • Staff with a long history of teaching in a building will be moved • May increase sub groups at each building due to increase in students

  5. Option 2: CLOSE TIFFINGrade Band Buildings Allen & Mt.L (PK-3) Worthington 4-5

  6. Option 2- Pros • Creates "grade band” buildings • Brings district students together, regardless of where they reside - creating unity • Eliminates polarization that has existed in the district between east vs. west • Would just have 3rd grade report data at two elementary buildings • Focus on achievement at intermediate would be located at only one elementary building • Still allows for "neighborhood school" concept for Allen and Mt Logan • Fair distribution of reductions across the district

  7. Option 2- Cons • Requires the cost of hiring 4 bus drivers • Loss of “neighborhood school” concept which has prevailed in Chillicothe for a long time • By passing a levy we are essentially closing the second best elementary in the county with a strong tradition of support • Requires the re-distribution of over 460 students • May increase the number of sub groups in each building due to increase in students

  8. Option 3: CLOSE WESTERN (CMS2)6th Grade Dispersed to Elementary

  9. Option 3 - Pros • Keeps promise to the community • Aligns to the District Master Plan • Maintains neighborhood school concept • Provides for teacher collaboration at grades 5/6 • Reduces student transitions to 1 from elementary to middle school • Doesn’t require the district to relocate any students • Allows for additional administrative support at CMS • Keeps Band and modifies Orchestra at Elementary • Maintains Elementary Class size/allows for OE applications • Fair distribution of reductions across the district

  10. Option 3 – Cons • Grade level collaboration for grades 4/6 is reduced • Breaks up 6th grade team, which has been successful • One grade level will run an opposite schedule • Cost of moving/renovation of District Office • Moving District Central Office • May increase sub groups due to increased number of students

  11. Levy Failure – CLOSE TIFFIN

  12. Levy Failure Implications • Shortened School Day • Minimum course offerings at CHS • Minimum curriculum at elementary and middle school; reading/math/science/social studies • Loss of music/art/physical education • Loss of staff to allow for additional intervention • Loss of staff to allow for advanced courses in reading/math at all grades • Crowded classrooms, high student/staff ratio’s • Decrease in adult supervision due to loss of teachers

  13. ODE Report Card Implications • Elementary gain 6th grade indicators • Middle School loses 6th grade indicators • All elementary impacted by 3 subgroups (All/ED/SWD) • District/Bldg Ratings impacted by increase in subgroups
