MARCH 2006 BUILDING REFERENDUM UPDATE

From the District 303 FAQ’s:

Question #9 -- Does a successful referendum guarantee that my child will return to his/her “home” school?

Not necessarily. School districts can, by law, assign students to any school as long as such movement does not cause Constitutionally-impermissible segregation. But new schools certainly improve the chances of children attending schools closer to their homes.
