The Lead
East Moline School District 37 holds its regular Board of Education meeting tonight at 6:00 PM at the Administration Building on Morton Drive. The meeting follows a public hearing at 5:55 PM regarding the district’s proposed e-learning plan. This evening's session comes as staff and families adjust to updated elementary attendance boundaries and new transportation zones designed to keep neighborhoods together and improve walking safety. Under the district’s realignment, elementary campuses now serve kindergarten through fifth grade, while Glenview Middle School houses sixth through eighth grades. Beyond boundary logistics, board members will review routine administrative items and personnel actions for the upcoming term. District families seeking updates on school assignments or transportation details can attend the session in person or check published board materials.
