• The plan calls for:
• Two new 5th-6th grade intermediate schools constructed for occupancy in 2019
• Students in 7th-8th grades to attend Excelsior and Oak Ridge Middle School
• Construction of a new elementary school and renovations to Excelsior Middle School, Bowman Woods, Indian Creek and Wilkins Elementary schools
• All elementary schools would become grades PK/K-4
