Summary : Every four (4) years, school districts having a director district plan of representation must determine the population in each of the director districts and, if each director district does not contain substantially the same number of persons as each of the other director districts, the school board has a duty to revise the districts to comply with the specifications in accordance with C.R.S. 22-31-110. In accordance with the statute, reapportioned districts shall be contiguous, compact, and as nearly equal in population as possible, the number of director districts should not be changed, and shall be completed no later than December 31st, 2024. The last reapportionment of director districts was made in 2020. Accordingly, the district’s consultant, Western Demographics Inc. (WDI), has evaluated director district populations and determined reapportionment is necessary. WDI will present the current district populations and reapportionment scenarios for the Board’s review and consideration. A second and final reading of the recommended scenario, that incorporates any Board of Education Director input, will be submitted at the December 10th, 2024 board meeting on the consent agenda for final approval.
