“It is essential that school administrators and school boards seek community input when making decisions to change the grade configurations for their school district.  Although this is not the only factor, with budgets obviously being critical, it is important to listen to the community to gain their preferences for issues such as school size, grade groupings, length of bus ride and the number of transitions involved.”
