Alternate School Proposals Introduced by Ukiah District
Trustees heard two new alternatives to the district plan at Pomolita. One option would keep kindergarten through 8th grade at Pomolita or create multiple K-8 schools while preserving some 7th and 6th grades in Potter Valley, Hopland, and Redwood Valley. The other would divide the district into north and south zones, expand Potter Valley High School, and shuttle Redwood Valley and Calpella students, aiming to reduce double sessions and busing within budget.
