4. Detailed Analysis of Disruption and Displacement
Option 3, v2: Close Merriam School (395 students); Conant Community Relocated
This option preserves the K-6 model for the five surviving school communities but focuses the displacement burden onto the Merriam community. The resulting operational disruptions stem from the remaining schools collectively accommodating the dispersed Merriam students. ● Displacement: This option results in the direct displacement of the Merriam school community. The school itself closes, and its students are redistributed across the remaining four Acton-based elementary schools.
