Reasons for Staff Recommendations

Capacity:  No change is recommended to the two mobile units at Apex.

Crowding:  The Board decided that Apex Elementary absorb some of the rapid growth in the Holly Ridge Elementary base area resulting in slight overcrowding at Apex Elementary which will be similar to crowding in other traditional calendar schools..

Healthy Schools:  The percentage of students from low-income families will decline from about 31% to about 25%, making Apex more similar to neighboring schools and raising the percentage of low-income students at Highcroft.

Long Range Planning:  Future schools opening in 2009, 2010, and 2011 are not expected to significantly impact the attendance area of this school.
