Worthington schools restructuring only affects middle school students and then not even most middle school students.  Just the kids who would now attend one of the four (or five if you count Phoenix) middle schools in the Worthington City School District.

McCord Middle School -  Map - 1500 Hard Road, Columbus, OH 43235

Perry Middle School - Map - 2341 Snouffer Road Worthington, OH 43085

The Perry Middle School building on Snouffer Road will still house Phoenix Middle School.

Google Maps seems ahead of the game.  Google Maps gave me  1500 Hard Road as the address for Perry Middle School.    The snippet of a Google Map here shows Google identifying Perry's address as 1500 Hard Road, Columbus Ohio 43235 rather than the Snouffer Road address.  Google is identifying the 2341 Snouffer Road as Phoenix Middle School.  Currently both Phoenix and Perry Middle Schools are housed in the building at 2341 Snouffer Road which says "Perry" on the front of the building.

The maps of the current Worthington middle school attendence areas and elementary school attendences area  from the Worthington City School site:

Worthington City Schools Middle School Attendance Map - .pdf

Worthington City Schools Elementary School Attendance Map  - .pdf

If I understand this correctly the elementary feeder schools that will be affected are Brookside Estates Elementary,  Bluffsview Elementary and Granby Elementary.  Worthington area neighborhoods that are affected include: Bluffsview,  Brookside Estates, Brookside Woods (the part that is in Worthington schools of course, not the part in Dublin), Brookside Village,  The Lakes at Worthington, Oldstone Crossing, Smoky Row Manor, The Bluffs, Worthington Green, Worthingview and others.

Perhaps there is concern that McCord will be overcrowded though too, but the FAQ on the Worthington City School site tells projected class size.

Worthington schools restructuring

The NBC4i.com coverage includes a video   Middle School Restructuring A Hot Topic Among Worthington Parents  and says " Worthington Restructuring - Worthington City Schools is consolidating its middle schools due to declining enrollment."

The  Worthington middle schools not affected by the restructuring are Worthingway and Kilbourne.

Worthington Estates Neighborhood

Worthington Estates Homes for Sale  c. 1965

Worthington Estates Elementary School

The Worthingway neighborhood in Worthington Ohio was built in the early 1960s. A Worthingway map shows streets now in the City of Worthington including  Longfellow, Poe, Hawthorne,  Stevenson, Thackery...  authors names... great authors names.   Other streets if they are writers names they are beyond my literary knowledge, Riley?, Bryant?, Tonbridge and Highgate?  

An ad for the Worthingway neighborhood from a Worthington Chamber of Commerce publication from 1964:

The Walter T.  Krumm advertisement for NEW homes in Worthingway says the Worthingway neigbhorhood is  north of "Worthington Proper"?  Worthingway and Worthington Estates were out in the country north of Worthington!  The two neighborhoods as well as what is NOW north of them  Olentangy Hills, Ville Charmonte and  Worthington Square was "out in the country" in the 1960s.  It sounds as if the Worthingway and Worthington Estates neighborhoods were in an unicorporated area outside the Cityof Worthington,  Worthingway would have been in Sharon Township when it was built.

Today the Worthingway neighborhood is well inside of the City of Worthington.

Worthington Estates ad from the chamber publication!

Home Market - Worthington Ohio  - 1941 

The photo is from March 1941, it was Lent...  look up to the right of the shop keepers head. "Birds Eye, Lenten Double Values, Haddock..." 

Home Market was a grocery store on High Street in Worthington. In a 1964 Worthington Chamber publication on Flickr an ad for Home Market gave the address as 660 High St. Worthington.   

660 High St. Worthington Ohio is  Scotties!

Worthington Memory a project of the Worthington Historical Society also tells me that the Home Market is the building which was Scottie Mac Beans for years,  now Scotties Coffee and Teas.

The photo is from Don O'Brien's Flickr Photostream.  O'Brien grew up on W.Wilson Bridge Rd in the 1930's and 1940's and has a great collection of Worthington photos.  O'Brien identifies the proprietor of the Home Market as Clyde Bachelor.  The Home Market photo is part of O'Brien's Worthington Business series on Flickr,

Home Market Ad - 1940

Worthington Streets- the business district

A 1980 Worthington Memorial Day Parade Photo on the Worthington Memory site says Home Market is in the background.  1980?  Really?  It is hard to believe a grocery store like that could have survived that long.  In the era when Don O Brien grew up there was a Kroger and an A and P right across the street on High Street in Old Worthington.
