[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If my child ends up going to Swanson what are the positives and negatives of going above 100%, 110%, 120%...? Classes Aren't they capped in size? Do the fill up quicker - are they harder to get into? New/Different classes - like sign language? Trailers Sports Teams - hard to get on? Lunch Room Full Also if a Middle School is only 90% capacity do they miss out on anything? Would innovative classes be pulled due to lower enrollment? [/quote] There are not positives for being overenrolled. It means: Classes are capped, so they need more classrooms (more trailers) Classes filling? That depends upon whether or not the school gets more staff - probably not No new classes. Resources are already strained Yes, trailers. Teams have more competition Lunch Room full Usually admin staff isn't increased, so that's less personal attention for students and parents.[/quote]
