UPDATE ON THE PROPOSED CHANGES TO HILLCREST NEIGHBORHOOD BOUNDARIES
On Wednesday, Dec. 19, the Oakland school board voted to postpone action on the OUSD proposal to adjust school attendance boundaries for Chabot, Montclair and Hillcrest. Instead, board members approved a motion to address the issue no later than April 2008 as part of a broader review of district enrollment policies and neighborhood boundaries.
