089be to rule in or out or provide information to the board that would have them make informed decisions because as provide information to the board that would have them make informed decisions because as provide information to the board that would have them make informed decisions because as you start to peel this onion and that would have them make informed decisions because as you start to peel this onion and that would have them make informed decisions because as you start to peel this onion and it really is an onion with lots informed decisions because as you start to peel this onion and it really is an onion with lots informed decisions because as you start to peel this onion and it really is an onion with lots of layers. it's not simply you start to peel

090this onion and it really is an onion with lots of layers. it's not simply you start to peel this onion and it really is an onion with lots of layers. it's not simply Grade 5 because others would say it really is an onion with lots of layers. it's not simply Grade 5 because others would say it really is an onion with lots of layers. it's not simply Grade 5 because others would say Well what about moving all of layers. it's not simply Grade 5 because others would say Well what about moving all of layers. it's not simply Grade 5 because others would say Well what about moving all pre-K to the East Building or Grade 5 because others would say Well what about moving all pre-K to the East Building or Grade 5 because others

091would say Well what about moving all pre-K to the East Building or moving grade eight to the East Well what about moving all pre-K to the East Building or moving grade eight to the East Well what about moving all pre-K to the East Building or moving grade eight to the East building and fifth grade to the pre-K to the East Building or moving grade eight to the East building and fifth grade to the pre-K to the East Building or moving grade eight to the East building and fifth grade to the middle school or shifting enrollments based on where we pick kids up, or how we shifting enrollments based on where we pick kids up, or how we shifting enrollments based on where we pick kids up, or how we could pick them up. So there

092are shifting enrollments based on where we pick kids up, or how we could pick them up. So there are shifting enrollments based on where we pick kids up, or how we could pick them up. So there are lots of different variables and where we pick kids up, or how we could pick them up. So there are lots of different variables and where we pick kids up, or how we could pick them up. So there are lots of different variables and we're going to look at what are could pick them up. So there are lots of different variables and we're going to look at what are could pick them up. So there are lots of different variables and we're going to look at what are the costs. And the benefits with a variety of situations and

The of situations and then help to inform and educate the board and and community members. The of situations and then help to inform and educate the board and and community members. The reason I share that is. Where I don't, I would envision that the outward migration might Where I don't, I would envision that the outward migration might Where I don't, I would envision that the outward migration

094might actually slow down. when you have rural fringe schools or towns, if there's a when you have rural fringe schools or towns, if there's a when you have rural fringe schools or towns, if there's a desire to move, they tend to when you have rural fringe schools or towns, if there's a desire to move, they tend to when you have rural fringe schools or towns, if there's a desire to move, they tend to move to more. closer to the turnpike, for example, in the state of Maine closer to the turnpike, for example, in the state of Maine closer to the turnpike, for example, in the state of Maine at 1.85% of people, I'm not closer to the turnpike, for example, in the state of Maine at 1.85% of people, I'm not closer to the turnpike,

095for example, in the state of Maine at 1.85% of people, I'm not sure what the current stat is, example, in the state of Maine at 1.85% of people, I'm not sure what the current stat is, example, in the state of Maine at 1.85% of people, I'm not sure what the current stat is, but it used to be 85% of people at 1.85% of people, I'm not sure what the current stat is, but it used to be 85% of people at 1.85% of people, I'm not sure what the current stat is, but it used to be 85% of people in the state of Maine lived sure what the current stat is, but it used to be 85% of people in the state of Maine lived sure what the current stat is, but it used to be

09685% of people in the state of Maine lived within five miles of the but it used to be 85% of people in the state of Maine lived within five miles of the but it used to be 85% of people in the state of Maine lived within five miles of the turnpike or the interstate. in the state of Maine lived within five miles of the turnpike or the interstate. in the state of Maine lived within five miles of the turnpike or the interstate. Most wouldn't realize but that's within five miles of the turnpike or the interstate. Most wouldn't realize but that's within five miles of the turnpike or the interstate. Most wouldn't realize but that's how significant that corridor turnpike or the interstate. Most wouldn't realize but that's how significant that corridor turnpike or the interstate.

097Most wouldn't realize but that's how significant that corridor is. So, but as prices have drastically ballooned along that corridor, prices have drastically ballooned along that corridor, prices have drastically ballooned along that corridor, it's harder to actually sell a prices have drastically ballooned along that corridor, it's harder to actually sell a prices have drastically ballooned along that corridor, it's harder to actually sell a home outside of that and move ballooned along that corridor, it's harder to actually sell a home outside of that and move ballooned along that corridor, it's harder to actually sell a home outside of that and move into it. So I think they'll be it's harder to actually sell a home outside of that and move into it. So I think they'll be it's harder to actually sell a home outside of that

098and move into it. So I think they'll be less creep, but I'm not a home outside of that and move into it. So I think they'll be less creep, but I'm not a home outside of that and move into it. So I think they'll be less creep, but I'm not a that's just my own gut feeling, into it. So I think they'll be less creep, but I'm not a that's just my own gut feeling, into it. So I think they'll be less creep, but I'm not a that's just my own gut feeling, which I think would be accurate, less creep, but I'm not a that's just my own gut feeling, which I think would be accurate, less creep, but I'm not a that's just my own gut feeling, which I think would be accurate, but

099I can't say that with 100% that's just my own gut feeling, which I think would be accurate, but I can't say that with 100% that's just my own gut feeling, which I think would be accurate, but I can't say that with 100% confidence, so we need to look which I think would be accurate, but I can't say that with 100% confidence, so we need to look which I think would be accurate, but I can't say that with 100% confidence, so we need to look at all of those variables. um, and realize and look at all of the footprints of our schools um, and realize and look at all of the footprints of our schools um, and realize and look at all of the footprints of our schools to determine how I think moving grade five

100to the middle school is our is really I think moving grade five to the middle school is our is really I think moving grade five to the middle school is our is really one of the top considerations, I think moving grade five to the middle school is our is really one of the top considerations, I think moving grade five to the middle school is our is really one of the top considerations, but we have to rule in or out middle school is our is really one of the top considerations, but we have to rule in or out middle school is our is really one of the top considerations, but we have to rule in or out that can't work. What other levers could this district? Pull, that could result in levers could this district? Pull,
