The charter, collaborative, superintendency union, and vocational (CCUV) districts layer includes the following district types:Charter - Charter schools are independent public schools that operate under five-year charters granted by the Commonwealth's Board of Elementary and Secondary Education (BESE). The increased freedom available to charter schools coupled with increased accountability, infuses all aspects of BESE's oversight of charter schools, beginning with the rigorous application process that groups must go through to receive a charter. Once BESE has awarded a charter, the new charter school has the freedom to organize around a core mission, curriculum, theme, or teaching method. It is allowed to control its own budget and hire (and fire) teachers and staff. In return for this freedom, a charter school must demonstrate good results within five years or risk losing its charter.Collaborative - Educational Collaboratives are formed by local school committees and charter boards under the provisions of Chapter 40, Section 4E. The purpose of an educational collaborative is to supplement and strengthen the programs and services of member school committees and charter boards. All educational collaborative agreements and amendments must be approved by the member school committees and charter boards and BESE.Superintendency Union - Superintendency unions (sometimes called "school unions") are cooperative arrangements between two or more school committees (typically in small towns) to share the services of a superintendent of schools and central office staff, while allowing each town to keep its own school committee and school buildings. The law authorizing school unions was enacted in 1870, predating the law authorizing regional school districts, which was enacted in 1949.Regional Vocational Technical - Career/vocational technical education programs is the term used to denote Chapter 74-approved vocational technical education programs and non-Chapter 74 career and technical education programs. Administered by a regional vocational school committee.More details...Map service also available.

OBJECTID: System-generated unique identifier for each record within the feature classGEODBID: Three-digit code that assigns editing responsibility to a community in the GIS ConsortiumFEATUREID: GIS-Consortium-generated unique identifier for each record within the feature class. All FEATUREIDs start with the GEODBID of the community that owns the record.DATECREATED: Date/time stamp from the moment the GIS record was createdDATEMODIFIED: Date/time stamp from the last moment the GIS record was changedTYPE: Additional designation of the feature. Includes the following: paved, unpaved, or unknownNAME: Name of the rail line, e.g. Union PacificSOURCE: Organization that provided the data. The GIS Consortium standard is to preface the source with the three-letter municipal code of the community providing the data, followed by a dash. Example: VGV-Public WorksSOURCETYPE: Accuracy context for the recordGlobalID: System-generated unique identifier for each record that is required in replicated geodatabasesTRACKTYPE: Ranking order for the line, e.g. primary, secondary, tertiaryPRODUCTIONNOTES: Technical notes from GIS personnelREPLICAFILTER: Code used to filter data for the creation of custom geodatabasesCOMMUTERLINENAME: Name of the commuter train that uses the tracks, e.g. Milwaukee District-NorthSHAPE: System-generated geometry type of the featureSHAPE.len: System-generated length of the feature

Purpose: This feature class was developed to represents bulk pickup, recycle pickup, and trash pickup days. Uses for the purpose of informative mapping, analysis, planning. The accuracy of this data varies and should not be used for precise measurements or calculations.Intended Use: Currently used for location information purpose in the Sanitation Viewer, mobile apps, and other Public Works applications.Department: Public Works Department - Sanitation Division.Data Source: Referenced feature service on Enterprise portal.How was the Data Manipulated: Data was added to GIS from Bulk, Recycle, and Residential Pickup Days as separate layers. These layers contain gaps in service area, so each layer was generalized separately to eliminate gaps and slivers. This produced the three separate generalized service polygons (Generalized Recycle, Generalized Residential, and Generalized Bulk), Then, the three were union to create this feature class, the Generalized Service Pickup Days, which displays the zones according to pickup day, in a user-friendly interface.How the Data is Modified: Update will be made if sufficient information is provided to GPS Technician from Engineering or Drainage division.Update Frequency: Edits to the data will be performed when the zones/days change with information provided by Public Works Sanitation supervisors.
