Why do we not reduce reliance on mobile classrooms as called for in planning assumptions adopted in September 2005?

0

The goals established by the Board of Education and Board of Commissioners in September called for reducing the percentage of students housed in mobile or modular classrooms to 8% by 2012. In 2005, about 27% of elementary students, 15% of middle school students, and 14% of high school students were in classes in mobile or modular classrooms. 109 additional mobile or modular classrooms are being installed for the 2006-07 school year. Significant progress toward the goal would require at least three additional new elementary schools, two additional middle schools, and an additional new high school and add more than $250 million to the funding request. The current proposal reduces the percentage in elementary school to approximately 19%, increases the percentage in middle school to 18% and slightly increases the percentage in high schools to about 15%.
