AUSTIN (KXAN) — The Austin Independent School District said Monday that it will hold three virtual meetings to discuss its school consolidation plans.
Those meetings will be 6-8 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday, as well as Sept. 15.
“Each meeting will explore the unique challenges and opportunities across different parts of the district. We’ll also share our goals and limitations related to programming, accountability, capacity, and more,” AISD said in a press release.
The meetings will be held via Zoom.
In August, AISD Superintendent Matias Segura told KXAN Anchor Tom Miller that the district plans to “present a recommendation in early October.”
“A healthy system has between 85 and 90% of its seats filled in elementary and middle school and high school. We have numbers that range from 76 to 84%,” Segura said. “The total cost that we’re looking to reduce is around $30 million.”
