During the December 20, 2022 Board of Education Business (BOE) Meeting, the Fairport Board of Education renewed its commitment to the resolution passed in May 2019 to merge Minerva DeLand’s ninth-grade class with Fairport High School.
The Board reaffirmed the reasons for the original resolution to merge as such:
- to reduce the number of school transitions made throughout a Fairport student’s time in the District
- to expand access for ninth-grade students to the academic and extracurricular programming available at FHS
- to better align curriculum and programming
- to consolidate District buildings in response to declining enrollment
- to adjust start times
