GCCISD Plans Rezoning to Improve
Student Success and Resource Efficiency

Goose Creek CISD has announced a district-wide rezoning initiative aimed at tackling overcrowding and ensuring equitable learning environments across all campuses. This effort underscores the district’s commitment to providing quality education, efficient operations, and student success.

Rezoning Goals:

• Reduce Overcrowding: Balance student enrollment across campuses.

• Establish Clean Feeder Patterns: Ensure students stay with their peers as they move through junior high and high school.

• Promote Equity: Ensure all students have access to quality learning environments and resources.

• Maximize Resources: Efficiently utilize existing facilities and taxpayer funding.

• Improve Transportation: Streamline bus routes for cost-effectiveness.

The Rezoning Process:

1. Enrollment Review: The district collaborated with Population and Survey Analysts (PASA) to analyze enrollment trends and future growth.

2. Rezoning Options: A rezoning task force worked with PASA to develop two zoning options after extensive evaluation.

3. Community Feedback: An online survey will be launched to gather input and address community concerns.

4. Final Plan Development: Community feedback and PASA’s analysis will guide the final recommendation to the board, focusing on balanced enrollment and equity.

Stay Informed and Involved

GCCISD encourages families and community members to stay informed and share feedback throughout the process. Your input is crucial to ensuring the rezoning meets the needs of all students and the community.

This initiative reflects the district’s dedication to fostering an environment where every student can thrive. 🏫📚

Thursday’s Quiz - Which of the following unusual facts about Hawaii is true?
Hawaii is the only U.S. state where coffee is grown commercially, particularly in the Kona region of the Big Island. The volcanic soil and tropical climate provide ideal conditions for coffee cultivation. While other states may have small-scale or experimental coffee growth, only Hawaii supports a large commercial industry. Climate-wise, most of the United States doesn't offer favorable growing conditions for coffee (for Arabica plants, these factors include mild temperatures with high humidity, rich soil, rainy and dry seasons, and altitude—the plants usually prefer a more mountainous terrain.)
