Creation of New School Districts

Statement on Reconfiguration, Nov. 15 2024

For more than a century, Alpine School District has given students in Utah County excellent education experiences. We are very grateful to our teachers, administrators, counselors, and support professionals who continue to deliver on their promise to prepare students for a future full of opportunities. 

As voters in the western and central parts of our district have chosen to create new school districts, we look forward to working with all engaged parties to ensure that this rich learning heritage continues.

Our history and tradition of excellence serves as a solid foundation upon which new districts can build. We will engage in this work with the same expertise, dedication, and professionalism that we have always demonstrated in Alpine School District.  

As we transition through this process, we will keep our students, families and employees informed. It is anticipated the new school districts will begin full operations in July of 2027. 

Our commitment is, and will always be, to achieve our Vision for Learning for each student we are privileged to serve.

The creation of new school districts is a process that we continue to learn about. This is the best, most complete information we have at this time. It is anticipated that there will be some possible revision of the School District Creation and Change statute that may affect the reconfiguration process. The information below is based on current state statute and school board policy. Please check this page frequently for updates to this list of questions and answers.

 

As we plan to set up new school districts for success, we will continue to find answers to your questions. Employees can submit questions using the button below. Community members who are not employees should use the website FEEDBACK button in the bottom right corner of the page.

Answers to Common Questions

What is the status of the Alpine School District?

It is anticipated that Alpine will be divided into three new districts: the “Central”, the “West”, and the “new reorganized” school district. 

The new “Central” and “West” school districts are created as soon as the County Commission certifies the vote. Board members for all three new districts will be elected in November 2025 and be seated in January 2026. Those boards will hire a superintendent and a business administrator sometime after that. The superintendents will hire staff and other employees necessary to begin full operations by July 2027.

There are no immediate changes for our employees. We will continue to meet the needs of our employees and the needs of our students in all of our schools. The new school districts are not scheduled to begin operations until July 2027.

According to the state statute, on the day a new school district begins educational services, an employee of a divided school district who is employed at a school that is transferred to a new school district will become an employee of the district in which the school is located.

 

All employees assigned to schools on July 1, 2027, will become employees of the school district in which the school is located. 

 

We have worked on and will continue to work on legislation to establish protections and protocols for the transition of non school-based employees. More information will follow. 

State statute indicates that an employee of a school district from which a new district is created who becomes an employee of a new school district shall retain the same status as a career or provisional employee with accrued seniority and accrued benefits.

 

Salaries and benefits, including steps and lanes, will be adopted by new school districts. The new school districts will be required to adopt all Alpine School District personnel policies and practices in effect at the time the new school districts begin providing education services. This would include any policies related to retirement incentives and eligibility. Contracted employees have due process rights in policy that guarantees their base salary will not be reduced without due process. Future earnings in the new school districts will be negotiated by those new school districts.
