How will the two mile distance be accurately measured from the schools?
We will utilize two approaches to establish the two mile limit around each elementary and middle school (the two mile calculation at the middle school level is only applicable to grade 6). First, we will use GIS software to establish the two mile limit; secondly we will conduct actual mileage checks from the driveway of each respective school to the point on the most commonly traveled public way until we reach two miles. Specific street addresses, telephone pole numbers and any other distinguishing geographical characteristic will be used to carefully note the two mile limit from each school.
