Site Selection
Milone and MacBroom generated an additional redistricting option for a scenario where Devine is the chosen site for the new Elizabeth G. Lyons Elementary School, scenarios 3a & 3b detailed on the attached presentation.No one within the District receives transportation except for students at the elementary level
who receive special education.

TSKP created a design matrix to identify the strengths and weaknesses of new construction on the Lyons site or new construction on the Devine site, see attached.

There has been talk around Town about building a campus on the Devine site. The MSBA will not pay for a campus. What a campus entails will need to be clarified. It was noted that the Devine site is just large enough for the school and parking with minimal extra space.

The School Building Committee will review the site recommendations with the full School Committee for review and then present to the Town Council. New construction on the Lyons site will be Option One, and new construction at the Devine site is Option Two.

Ida made a motion to accept Options One and Two and do a full investigation, Andrea seconded. Andrea called for a roll call and voting was as follows:

  1. Carlos Colley-Yes
  2. Andrea Nixon-Yes
  3. Ida Gordon-Yes
  4. Thea Stovell-Yes
  5. Ron Lum-Yes
  6. Pam Davis-Abstain
  7. Adam Smith-Yes

Unanimous vote.

Andrea will look into the team presenting at the next School Committee meeting on November 12th at 7:30 PM.
