Superintendent Dr. Meinert highlights the upcoming School Consolidation Process in this video.

School consolidation is a challenging and emotional topic for any community, and the process of closing schools and adjusting school boundaries has a significant impact on students, families, staff, and the larger community. Beginning in January, the school board will carefully review a school consolidation plan recommended by district administration, with a final decision expected in February.

Over the past several months, the district has engaged in multiple community engagement events to seek input from the Fairbanks community in order to help create the new district strategic plan. A steering team made up of students, staff, parents, and community members has carefully reviewed the community engagement data and crafted the district's new strategic direction based upon the community's feedback.
