Beaverton School District is initiating a two-year review process that may lead to school closures and boundary changes. The district has experienced a significant drop in student enrollment, losing nearly 5,200 students since 2019. Projections indicate this decline will continue, creating a substantial budget deficit. Superintendent Tony Smith emphasized that no specific schools are predetermined for closure but decisions are necessary to align resources with the student population. The district plans a transparent process involving community feedback before any final votes.
