Leander ISD
Fall 2007 Elementary
Attendance Zone Advisory Committee Seeking Parents/Community
Members!
Did you know that Leander ISD continues to be among the fastest growing school
districts with more than 10,000 students in Texas? We grew almost 10% just this
past year, and now have close to 27,000 students enrolled.
This type of growth means new classrooms, new buildings, and new attendance
boundaries. In fact, we will be opening 2 elementary schools for 2008-2009 as well as
our fourth high school.
We need your help! Leander ISD is currently forming a parent/citizen advisory
committee to develop recommendations to the Board for elementary school
attendance boundaries for the year starting 2008 – 2009. We need parents
and community members from all areas of Leander ISD to participate, since these
recommendations often impact the entire District.
Our first scheduled meeting will be held October 25, 7:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. in the Artie
L. Henry Middle School Cafeteria, located at 100 N. Vista Ridge Blvd. in Cedar Park.
Committee members should expect to meet bi-weekly or weekly through mid-December, with a
recommendation due to the School Board by January 2008.
Volunteers will be accepted until October 8th. While more than one person per neighborhood is
welcome, there is a limit of one voting member from each “neighborhood code.” This is on a
first-come, first-serve basis, unless the neighborhood selects another voting representative.
Please register online beginning 8:00am Wednesday, September 19th by going to
www.leanderisd.org, where you will find a link that will lead you to the registration form.
When you register you will be asked to complete a survey telling us what is important to you.
After the first survey, we will be sending registered members a follow-up survey to prioritize
most important factors in a good decision. Receipt of this second survey will be your
registration confirmation.
If you do not have access to register online, please call Gina Mitschke at 434-5066 (Business &
Operations department) to register.
Registration must be complete by October 8th, 2007.
