Public Feedback Sought on Tentative Middle School Boundaries

The Canyons Board of Education received a pdf iconproposal for new middle school boundaries that would include building a new Crescent View Middle School at a Draper location.

The proposal, created following community feedback on recommendations presented last spring by the Boundary Steering Committee, aims to better accommodate student enrollment and create cleaner school feeder patterns.

The proposal, presented Tuesday, Feb. 21, 2012, would:

  • Build a new Crescent View in Draper (the District owns property on 1300 East).
  • Create Crescent View’s boundary as south of 12300 South, to include about 1,250 students.
  • Eliminate at least four Crescent View school bus routes and save more than $88,000 a year.
  • Extend Mount Jordan Middle School’s boundary to 12300 South.
  • Set the Indian Hills boundary from 10600 South to 12300 South (and Dimple Dell) and from the east bench to the new TRAX line, to include all of Altara, Sunrise, and Lone Peak elementary boundaries. This would include about 1,125 students.
  • Result in the following projected, in-boundary enrollments for the other middle schools: Albion, 763; Butler, 774; Eastmont, 825; Midvale, 853; and Union, 938.
  • Allow the existing Crescent View facility, which is near a TRAX stop, to be used for magnet programs, or preschool and all-day kindergarten program expansion.

Another part of the proposal would align the new Corner Canyon High School’s boundaries to include all students living south of 12300 South. The Board last fall approved elementary and high school boundaries to be implemented in the 2013-2014 school year.

Still to be determined: if, when, and where to build a new Crescent View Middle School; how to pay for it; and when to implement new middle school boundaries. A $20 million renovation, but not rebuild, to Crescent View was included in the $250 million bond voters approved in 2010. Several Board members expressed interest in exploring the possibility of another bond.

Lucie Chamberlain

Alta View Elementary

If a movie about super teachers were ever made, Lucie Chamberlain would be a prime candidate for a leading role. Fortunately for her kindergarten students at Alta View Elementary, she already thrives in a supporting role for them. Parents thank her for being a “super teacher.” She is also described as an “amazing colleague.” Whether students need help in the classroom or from home while sick, Lucie goes above and beyond to help them learn, overcome fears, and feel important and cared for. Lucie is the reason a number of kids went from hating school to loving it, according to parents. The way she exudes patience, sweetness, positive energy, and love for her students with special needs melts is appreciated and admired. One parent noted: “Both my kids wish she could be their teacher forever.” Another added:  “She treats every student like their learning and their feelings are her priority.” Super teacher, indeed!
