Up to 900 kindergarten through fifth grade students in Columbia Public Schools will be moved to different elementary schools over the next three school years.
The Columbia School Board voted 6-1 in favor of redrawing elementary attendance areas during the Monday meeting after nearly a year of planning.
Board member David Seamon was the only dissenting vote. Seamon questioned whether the redistricting plan proposed would meet the board’s equity statement.
The redrawing of attendance areas will be implemented in three phases over the next three school years.
