[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I see nothing on inboundary student totals in these two-hundred pages.[/quote] Here's the methodology of the enrollment projections. The DME relied upon the Office of Planning for demographic projections. The OOP divides the city into 40+ Planning Clusters, each of roughly 20,000 people. The OOP provided the DME with projections on school-age children population by Planning Cluster. The DME's office then took each cluster, and said where do the kids who live there go to school now, and what will it look like in eight years if the projected number of kids went to the exact same mix of schools, in the exact same proportion. Now the obvious flaw with this method is that it assumes that there will be no change in attendance patterns, which is clearly not true and very easy to poke holes in. However, I don't see any other way you could have done it. [/quote]
