To: Fort Bend ISD Board of Trustees Go Ahead With High School Rezoning Option 3. The re-zoning is highly needed for Clements,as it is way over the campus capacity. Current FBISD High School Rezoning plans will send 316 students from Clement High School to Elkin High School which reduce the over capacity of Clement and ensure the best use of FBISD resources in this time of stringent budget deficit. The Fort Bend Independent School District, as an equal opportunity provider of high quality education is committed to utilize available facilities and resources efficiently.

REDUCE OVERCROWING OF COMPUS: As the proposed High School Rezoning Option 3 will move 316 students from Clements to Elkins, thereby reduce the overcrowding of Clement Campus and able to effectively utilize the excess capacity of Elkin High School facility.
