Why is the District building new schools when the total enrollment of the District has increased only slightly in the past five years?
The CBAC recognized that severe overcrowding existed in several schools and that the overcrowding was detrimental to classroom instruction. The Committee believed that these individual school situations needed to be addressed despite the fact that District enrollment trends were relatively flat in recent years. The CBAC recommended the minimum number of new schools to address the most overcrowded campuses, only those at 125 percent or greater of permanent capacity.
