 At the DPS Board of Education’s November 16 work session, a new student assignment and magnet school proposal was released. This proposal has the potential to bring many positive changes to education in Durham, but the Board of Education wants to gather your input on this proposal in order to make the best decision for children when they meet on December 15.

You can offer your input in a variety of ways. First, you can visit our student assignment website. There you will find maps and other important information along with an input box for your suggestions and feedback.

Additionally, the Board will hold a series of public input sessions. Please plan to attend one of the following:

Monday, December 5 at Jordan High

Thursday, December 8 at Southern High

All sessions will begin at 6:30 p.m.
