Redistricting is the process of drawing local, state, and federal electoral district boundaries every ten years following the U.S. Census to account for changes in population during the previous decade. Florida law requires School Board and County Commission boundaries to be redrawn in an odd-numbered year and that each district be as nearly equal in population as practicable.
As has been past practice, the St. Johns County School Board and Board of County Commissioners will work together to share the same boundaries for each of their five districts. Doing so will reduce the number of necessary districts and will allow each board to share the cost of completing the process.
Redistricting is in no way related to student attendance zones and will not affect where a child attends school. However, it may change which board members represent your voting district.
Community feedback is encouraged and comments may be submitted to the School Board and Board of County Commissioners throughout the process to [email protected].
