The plan is designed to relieve overcrowding in the state's largest school district, as students and staff at 29 schools are slated to be re-routed to different campuses in the fall of 2010 as the district cuts back on trailers and draws boundaries for six new schools.

"We realize change isn't easy," said Sloan Roach, Gwinnett Schools spokeswoman. "We also know that the opening of a new school is something to celebrate. What we have seen in the past is ... people who may not have been real excited about the change, once they get to their new school ... their enthusiasm is just over the top."

School officials said the proposed maps will be available on the Gwinnett Schools Web site. Parents can weigh in on the plan before it is taken up by the Gwinnett Board of Education. Comment forms will be distributed and collected before a public hearing is held on redistricting on Nov. 19.
