Board asked to confirm revised grade spans at three schools

What happened

Administration is asking the board to formally confirm the grade spans already in effect for 2026–27: Houghtaling Elementary School K–5, Schoenbar Middle School 6–8 and Revilla Jr./Sr. High School 6–12. The agenda describes this as a proposed approval of the post-consolidation configuration, not a completed board action.

Why it matters to families

The grade-span arrangement determines which schools serve students in grades 6–8 and represents a material change from the prior configuration, in which Houghtaling served K–6 and Schoenbar served grades 7–8. The item seeks formal board approval for the current school year.

The evidence

The September 18 agenda statement says the grade-level changes were implemented as part of the 2026–27 consolidation, but the prior board action did not specifically approve the revised spans. It requests approval of Houghtaling K–5, Schoenbar 6–8 and Revilla 6–12, effective for 2026–27.
