This blog has been created to serve as a community forum where the Tangletown residents and neighbors can share their thoughts and ideas regarding the proposed Minneapolis Public School changes. It is not affiliated with any specific organization.
Option 1 includes the elimination of all magnets and requires all students to attend the community school closest to their home.
Option 2 centralizes the magnet schools between Lake Street and Broadway and provides a community school choice close to each household as an option.
Option 3 creates zones where magnet choices would be limited and a community school option would be available to each household within their zone.
The underlying intention for the proposed changes is to reduce transportation costs and eliminate the need to bus children all over the city.

Just like everyone else, we go the vague letter in the kids school mail that was sent home today. What is going on? Does anyone have more information?

Any news out of today's meeting? I hope the board does something public instead of these "behind closed doors" meetings.
