Whether you are a parent of a currently enrolled child or just a BI taxpayer, you should also be concerned about the fact that the District is considering making major changes to programs with far reaching effects on current and future students and facilities as part of it's effort to fill the projected deficit for the 2017-18 school year.  

These changes, which include closing a school (Commodore),  relocating as many as 6 programs at Commodore and Ordway and moving towards the relocation of current Ordway K-4 students, would normally be addressed through a separate district-wide planning process, with public involvement and consideration of the full District's long term needs. Please consider signing this petition to insist the District create a legitimate process for these decisions:
