Community invited to stop by district offices on Wednesday to review maps, go over numbers Seguin ISD Enrollment boundary maps now available for public review By Cindy Aguirre-Herrera

(Seguin) -- After months of meeting, pouring over maps and evaluating enrollment numbers, the Seguin ISD rezoning committee is looking to propose its two new revised elementary school attendance zone maps for community input. The maps are what are used by the district to determine what schools your kids will attend. It's all based on where you live. Sean Hoffmann, Seguin ISD chief communications officer, says this work, however, comes after the school district has been somewhat fortunate to have operated under the same attendance boundaries for the past 9 to 10 years. "The drawback to that is that we have not sustained growth that would necessitate us to redraw those boundaries. There is impending growth and we do have campuses that have a disproportionate number of students compared to some of our other campuses and mainly at the

elementary levels. So at this point, we've realized that it is time to get community input on what these new attendance zones will look like," said Hoffmann. Hoffmann says district officials believe the Rezoning Committee has worked hard in evaluating the attendance zones and drawing up these new boundaries. "Over the past couple of months, we have had community members, parents, employees who reside within the district attend evening meetings and essentially look at our current attendance zone boundaries and really work hard in looking at the numbers and look at the streets and affected areas where we could possibly shift some of those attendance zone boundaries in order to better distribute our students and also prepare for future growth within our schools," said Hoffmann. Hoffmann says the district just realized that it was time to revisit the school zones and give the public a say in the future. See MAPS, page 3
