[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The presentation about the magnet says that the Magnet enrolls 137 students.[/quote]

Is that just for 6th grade or is that total at the school?[/quote]
I thought that was admitted students so they could try to hit a size of 100.

Just incoming 6th grade. Would be two additional classes going forward. [/quote]

so a total of 150 students?[/quote]

Wow. I’m not sure whether anything has happened with Eastern’s enrollment numbers or facilities, but when my kid was there a few years ago, it was incredibly crowded. Like, can’t get through the hallways, classes being held in hallways (no portables), and they [b]had to have three lunch periods[/b] (one year my kid ate lunch before 11am).

I can’t believe they’re deliberately adding another 37 kids to the population, let alone 137 over the next three years.  [/quote]

Eastern has four lunch periods, with the first one starting at 10:17 AM - definitely crowded!

Can anybody point to some evidence that Eastern is expanding?  I'm not seeing anything in these posts that actually confirm this, and it would be a big change.[/quote]
