Some parents of elementary school children may send their kids to a different school in the fall. Onslow County Schools are working through the process of redistricting.

School officials list two reasons for redistricting their elementary schools. They are opening a new elementary school in Fall 2009. Officials also cite "extreme growth" as a factor for the need for change.

The Onslow County School board meeting on Tuesday, January 6 will allow a public comment period about redistricting. The meeting is at Meadow View Elementary School on Fire Tower Rd. in Jacksonville at 7 p.m.

Onslow County Schools are accepting comments from the public through January 16.

People can email comments to redistricting.comments@onslow.k12.nc.us. You may also send comments in writing to:
Onslow County Public Schools
ATTN: Redistricting Comments
PO Box 99
Jacksonville NC 28541-0099
