[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Solutions: --Add additional space. --Get rid of PK classrooms. --Shrink boundaries --Open a new elementary school (or one devoted just to Early Education) in Ward 3 to take off some of the pressure. --Leave as is and suffer through knowing that the bubble will pass. [/quote] Adjust boundaries slightly and reduce out of boundary enrollment. Eaton and especially Hearst are majority OOB schools. Even as inboundary enrollment has increased, DCPS has been slow to ratchet back OOB enrollment. By adjusting Janney and Murch boundaries slightly, some of the overcrowding pressure could be removed from those schools, with more local population shifted to Hearst and Eaton. By reducing OOB enrollment, this also takes some pressure off of the middle schools (Hearst feeds to Deal) and Wilson.[/quote]
