District news
Breckenridge and Upper Blue elementary schools will combine in 2027-28

What happened
The board decided to merge Breckenridge Elementary and Upper Blue Elementary into one school that opens in August 2027. The district says it will not ask voters for a bond this fall and will not build an addition at Upper Blue.
Why it matters to families
Families at both schools will move to one school. Boundaries, busing and staffing are still being worked out, and the district says they will be set this fall and winter.
The evidence
The district's consolidation page lists what the board decided: consolidation begins in 2027-28, no bond in fall 2026, and no Upper Blue addition. It cites declining enrollment, aging buildings and rising costs. Board recordings from October 2026 show public worry about the change.
