Impact if Approved by the Board of Education

The base area for Green Elementary will be expanded through the reassignment of approximately 47 students from nodes 031.0, 038.0, and 271.4 who currently attend Douglas, 31 students from nodes 028.1 and 030.4 who currently attend Brooks, and 22 students from node 29.2 who currently attend Baileywick. Year-round application areas will be reassigned from Green to Brier Creek, Laurel Park, Sycamore Creek, and Leesville Elementary.

Reasons for Staff Recommendations

Capacity:  No change is planned for the four mobile units at Green. Capacity will increase slightly through a reduction in the number of special needs classrooms.

Crowding:  Crowding was not a concern at this school in the development of these recommendations. In calculating growth, the projection software applies the same growth factor to the year-round application students as it does to the students in base nodes. Since these are application students in a node and not base students, the impact of either losing or gaining students may not be as large as indicated.

Healthy Schools:  The percentage of students from low-income families will remain above the system average at around 41% until additional applications to the Green year-round program occur.

Long Range Planning:  Green has lost significant portions of its year-round application area to the opening of new year-round schools. Staff believes the school needs a larger base area.
