HCPSS MPIA Request #2020-064

Requested Information
The Superintendent just released a School Attendance Area Adjustment Plan for the 2020-2021 school year. In that school boundary review, one of the goals is to level Free and Reduced-Price Meal (FARM) participation across schools. To ensure the proposed changes meet that goal, I am requesting the count and/or percentage of FARM students data by polygon disaggregated by elementary, middle, and high school attendance.
