The Secondary Enrollment Planning Committee began meeting in January 2011. This committee was responsible for recommending boundary changes to the Board of Education in order to (1) incorporate a third comprehensive high school into the Columbia Public School District, and to (2) reconfigure Columbia's secondary school boundaries to include intermediate schools serving grades 6 through 8, and high schools serving students in grades 9 through 12.

The committee evaluated current and projected secondary school enrollment, bus transportation information, community plans for subdivision growth, and road development. The goal was to recommend boundary changes that reduce the number of grade-level transitions and reflect the composition of the Columbia community. Additionally, the committee was to recommend a transfer policy and a grandfathering plan for students impacted by the addition of the new high school and the reconfiguration of our intermediate schools.

The committee held a series of public forums in March 2011 in order to gather community input on the enrollment and boundary planning process.  Another series of forums was held in November 2011 to give the community with an opportunity to provide feedback and input on the top three boundary scenarios developed by the committee.  The committee made its recommendations to the Board of Education in February 2012.
