And here are capacity figures DCPS calculated in [i]2002-03[/i] ... http://www.21csf.org/csf-home/DocUploads/DataShop/DS_143.pdf

Wilson = 1431 building capacity
Deal = 964 building capacity

I know Wilson went through a modernization program in 2011, so maybe that explains the 12% capacity increase DCPS gave it before 2013.  Did Deal get any significant expansion in the 10 years between 2003 and 2013, to explain the 24% capacity bump it received?

According to this document from 2015 - https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=11&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwi4tLyP97rUAhWBXyYKHUZpBRsQFghlMAo&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwilsonhs.org%2Fourpages%2Fauto%2F2014%2F10%2F31%2F50465841%2FLSAT%2520Meeting%2520Minutes_2015_02_19.docx&usg=AFQjCNHxgzUEiL-sCFbhC4pW7VhOKArj0w&sig2=IpDTD4qr6lMS2u24_twlaA -  "Original specifications for Wilson were for 1550 students [i][Is this after the 2011 modernization?][/i], however space was reconfigured to increase building capacity at 1750; accommodating 1808 is a problem. 90% classrooms are utilized.  The spaces that could be opened for classroom space are fully utilized – the 10% remaining couldn’t be used for classrooms."

According to this page from 2015, Deal has a permanent capacity of 1370, plus "portable" capacity of 200 more.  Wilson has a permanent capacity of 1700.  https://github.com/codefordc/school-modernization/blob/master/InputData/DCPS%20Building%20Condition%20Dat%20(2-Table%201.csv

As an aside, here is a fascinating report from around 2006, which describes how DCPS was not making use of many buildings due to underenrollment.  Interesting to compare what was going on then with what we see now.
