2022 MPUSD Trustee Area Redistricting

UPDATED: January 18, 2022

 

After speaking with MPUSD's demographers, it is recommended that the district push back the initial meeting that the Board of Education will receive draft maps one meeting until February 8, 2022. This will allow the demographers to receive the Commission's input and incorporate it into draft maps for Board of Education consideration and discussion. 

 

The new Board timeline is proposed as the following:

 

During the Monterey Peninsula Unified School District Board Meeting on Tuesday, November 16, board members reviewed and approved appointments to a redistricting commission.

 

The purpose of the commission will be to help evaluate trustee areas and provide feedback on any necessary changes to the current boundaries within the school district.

 

Meetings for the redistricting commission and the public will be held in December and January in-person at the locations below and on Zoom:

 

  • Wednesday, January 12, 2022 @ 6 p.m.* | District Services Center @ 540 Canyon Del Rey in Monterey (Del Rey Oaks)
  • Monday, January 24, 2022 @ 6 p.m.* | District Services Center @ 540 Canyon Del Rey in Monterey (Del Rey Oaks)
