Students
Schenevus and Worcester superintendents have surveyed students in both buildings and met with Student Council representatives
A survey of alumni is planned. A report will be shared when it becomes available.
Staff
Meetings have been held with faculty and staff in both districts
Committees are to be formed as early as December 2021 if merger moves forward
Community
