Apply for the Redistricting Steering Committee

As the Tredyffrin/Easttown School District prepares for the opening of Bear Hill Elementary School in August 2027, the District is moving into the next phase of the elementary redistricting process and is seeking parent and guardian volunteers to serve on the Redistricting Steering Committee. The application period to serve on the Committee opens today and runs through the end of the day on April 24.

A Meaningful Way to Support TESD

The Redistricting Steering Committee will be responsible for developing and recommending a redistricting plan that redraws elementary school attendance boundaries to support balanced enrollment and the effective use of District facilities. Serving on the Committee offers parents and guardians an opportunity to contribute to an important District initiative, represent family and community perspectives, and support a transparent, student‑focused planning process.

Redistricting Steering Committee Composition

  • 1 administrative staff liaison
  • 10 parents and/or guardians
  • 1 external facilitator
  • Observers, such as School Board members or District staff, as appropriate

  • Be residents of the Tredyffrin/Easttown School District, and
  • Meet one of the following criteria:
    • Have a child currently enrolled in grades K–2 in a TESD school, or
    • Have a child currently enrolled in grades 3–4 in a TESD school and a child not yet school age

Please note that only one participant per TESD student household will be considered.

Committee members will be randomly selected from an applicant pool to achieve balanced representation across the District’s elementary attendance areas.

The selection process seeks to include:

  • Two parents/guardians from each current elementary attendance area
  • Balanced representation from Hillside families assigned to both middle schools, if possible
  • One alternate parent/guardian per attendance area
