High Structural Disruption to Acton students. Students change schools and primary peer groups at Grade 4, losing the valued K-6 continuity, even though the transition occurs within the same physical campus facility . The number of sections per grade increases significantly (up to 7 sections per grade). * full analysis of disruption is highly dependent on school committee enrollment policy decisions. For example, if the committee leaves students at their current buildings, and distributes Conant students and staff, the displacement is approximately 410 (16.4%) of students. If the school committee opted for a wider distribution of students through neighborhood schools or another open enrollment option, the disruption would likely be between 50-70% of students across all schools (accounts for some students remaining at current Acton schools, and most Boxborough students remaining at Blanchard). High Structural Disruption to Acton students. Students change schools and primary peer groups at Grade 4, losing the K-6 model. Sections increase significantly in size (up to 7 sections per grade).
