CHARLOTTE — Leaders with Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools are considering a magnet program overhaul that would include converting EE into a high school.
The plan was proposed at a board retreat, according to a Charlotte Observer report.
CMS currently has 16 magnet themes, but if the plan is adopted, it would consolidate down to six.
The plan includes converting EE Waddell to a high school. It could also mean redrawing attendance boundaries for other high schools in the area.
CMS plans to get public feedback before voting on a finalized version of the proposal in May.
