At this months board workshop meeting they talked about school capacities and growth projections. The above link is to the meeting and that part of the meeting starts at the 54:40 mark in the video. Below is my summary.
Elementary Schools
A couple schools are over capacity, Pebble Creek is under capacity, the 10th Elementary(River Bend) will open in August 2019 and schools will be rezoned then. Here are the projected numbers for elementary schools without River Bend:
Intermediate/Middle Schools
No issues, plenty of room
High Schools (a.k.a The elephant in the room)
The high schools are an issue. CSHS is projected to grow to way over current capacity while AMCHS stays plenty under capacity. On these charts, green means they are under 85% capacity and yellow means over 110% capacity.
Watching the video while they discussed the High Schools was interesting. You can tell there is definitely an "elephant in the room". They all know they are going to have to rezone the high schools again but they don't want to say that. I imagine they are hoping this issue magically goes away because they still remember all the hate email they got the last time.
But, the reality is rezoning of the high schools is going to happen. When one school is way under capacity and the other is way over, the solution is simple. While there are plans to expand CSHS one day, it makes no sense to talk about issuing bonds to expand CSHS while AMCHS is still under 85% capacity.
I think the only question that needs answered is "who will get rezoned"?
