The report shows that both schools are at capacity in 2021 (and that's with the very conservative numbers on growth areas - Eagle reported only a couple dozen added in new developments next couple years, but I believe some of those areas are much further along than they were when demographer did their report). But regardless, I just don't understand why we'd rezone now when in two years CSISD HS capacity is at 100% (85% + 110% = 195%). Someone help me understand - if they bond in 2021, doesn't it take 3 years (?) to build a HS? So, both HS will be over capacity for 3 years while they build. We're just moving kids to an under-capacity school now, but the district as a whole is at capacity very soon which means BOTH HS will be over-capacity. I truly must be missing something.
IN the presentation, for ALL 4 options they are considering, they are "assuming" that in 2021/2022, they will have a Bond to expand CSHS to be able to hold 2500 students.
They forecast that will be completed for the 2024/2025 school year.
Then in 25/26 another bond will be passed for the 3rd high school which will be completed 3 years after that.

The consider Capacity at 110% of the "Capacity" column.
A&M consolidated has a capacity of 2350 currently, so 110% of that is 2585
CSHS currently has capacity of 1950 (2145)
Expansion for CSHS takes it to over 2500 capacity.
Read the 4 option "projection spreadsheets" with that in mind.
Option 3 actually gets A&M consolidated way over capacity for a longer time.
