Attendance Zone Changes

District administrators are proposing attendance line changes to address overcrowding at some schools and accommodate for residential growth. YOU ARE RECEIVING THIS LETTER BECAUSE according to district records you live in part of the district that would be impacted by the proposed changes to attendance lines, which were presented during the Richland Two Board Meeting on August 24, 2021.

- Blythewood Crossing Subdivision, Blythewood Crossing Apartments, Summer Pines Subdivision, Windfall Subdivision and North Pines Subdivision are slated to be moved from the Bethel-Hanberry Elementary attendance zone to the Langford Elementary attendance zone.

- Hunters Run Subdivision, Crickentree Subdivision and Baymont Subdivision are slated to be moved from the Langford Elementary attendance zone to the Lake Carolina Elementary (Lower and Upper) attendance zone.

- The Falls subdivision is slated to be moved from the Round Top Elementary (RTE) attendance zone to the Lake Carolina Elementary (Lower and Upper) attendance zone.

The changes were presented during the Richland Two Board Meeting on August 24, 2021. Click here to watch a recording of this portion of the board meeting. Click here to view slides outlining the proposed changes.

IF THESE CHANGES ARE APPROVED BY THE SCHOOL BOARD AT THEIR OCTOBER 26, 2021 MEETING, they would go into effect for the 2022–2023 school year.

To help parents learn more about the proposed changes we are holding several meetings over the next few weeks. You are invited to attend one of these meetings:

• September 30, 2021, 6:30 p.m. at Lake Carolina Elementary Lower Campus in the multi-purpose room
  

The meetings will begin with a brief presentation on the attendance line changes. After the presentation, participants will have the opportunity to view maps of the proposed attendance lines and discuss the proposal/ask questions with district administrators. Tours of Langford Elementary and the Lake Carolina Elementary schools will be available after the presentations at those two locations.
