Redistricting plan to prevent overcrowding at Jennings CLC proposed by Akron schools
Akron Public Schools is considering redistricting Leggett Community Learning Center, an elementary school, to balance enrollment and prevent overcrowding at Jennings CLC, a middle school that is currently operating at 99% capacity. The plan would redistrict Leggett CLC to become part of the Garfield Cluster. Approximately 50 rising sixth graders would then attend Innes CLC instead of Jennings CLC each year over the next three years, for a total of about 150 students.
